Live Brief 5 - Wetherspoons

I recently made some work for the large pub chain Wetherspoons, who were requesting illustrations to boost team morale.

I thought it would be cool to be featured in the Wetherspoons gallery so I entered. The conditions of the contest specified that I could only enter my work after having a few pints, and that I was only to create the work using Wetherspoons branded crayons that are handed out for free with the children's menus.

This is me working on the design

And this was the final design which I submitted. In future I must be more experimental with my character design. This brief opened my eyes to the potential of cheap crayons as a creative tool. The medium is the message, after all.
