Collaborative project 1

I have finally finished my first brief (out of 2) for the module collaboration project. The first brief we were given was a selection of briefs from D&ad and i decided to go with the make your mark brief. This allowed for free reign with one goal, of getting yourself and your work noticed. I decided to produce a promotional pack to send to niche clients, and illustration agencies, focusing on my strongest unique feature that makes me, Me. The following photo shows a snippets of how this went (mock up not final printed version). I am hoping to follow through my self-branding and have the website re designed to match this for when i send these packages out. Any thoughts? let me know.

Vector Artist

I often wonder wether working in vector illustration makes my work more easily dismissed compared to other illustrators who work mainly by hand. I love working with illustrator and i have developed a way of working which suits me. I am a good drawer not exceptional but illustrator allows me to develop this further and to create beautiful pieces.
Fashion, nature and the pretty little things in life inspire my work. I hope at the end of my 3rd year of graphic design to have a portfolio of work which reflects this. I have been very fashion focused this year and it is defiantly pushing me down the fashion industry path, wether that is fashion illustration or graphic design for fashion brands only time will tell. I hope to achieve my goals this year and i am constantly striving to be among the best. I guess it must be one of those things you either really like or dislike, a bit like marmite. Anyways take a look at my work and decide for yourself, feel free to add opinions.
