stepping outside

this fellow showed up a couple of days ago... last week's heatwave has probably gotten to me... :)

fox and bunnies

When I was sorting out files and updating portfolios last week I got caught up a little with foxes and bunnies and vector doodling... although I'd have enough on my plate. I also have a real life fox in my new neighbourhood who I often catch late at night hanging around the dustbin on the street across my window. So maybe he/she is to blame...
--- thinking of bringing him/her a sandwhich one day. Or I put a bunny in the trashcan... em of course a healthy, vegan tofu bunny rather... much better fit for the 'hood' as well... enough blabber some pictures... 

He is my favourite:

- hello

 - love sucks

Logo design - KnowledgeFox

These foxes are part of a logo design process I did in December/January... 

The logo is for a new company in the learning software business and a spin-off of the Research Studios Austria called KnowledgeFox. They asked me for a fox with the directive not to be sneaky nor furtive but cute, smart and inquisitive.

mmmm... picnic

This illustration was for a picnic promotion by the café Moser in Salzburg this spring and done for LOA Design Studio Salzburg. Food having fun in the sun :)

some icons for the flyer

luchadores for threadless collab

the finished wrestlers for the threadless collab

I named them 'Sweet Pain' and 'Kiss-My-Boots'

couldn't decide between these two so I ended up vectoring both..

now ISABOA aka Joe has to decide which one to put on the shirt..

not a very easterly post but anyway

happy egg eating!

vector doodling - kitschy unicorns

While I was working on a logo in Dec./Jan. I fell in love with vector doodling again -haven't done it for quite a long time. Playing around with the shapes and ending up with something completely different as originally intended is really a lot of fun. And I think a good way to take a little break from the main work yet ending up doing something.

Here is a glimpse at the mess I like to make on the art-board... while making the basic shape of nessie... some 'kitschy' unicorns came along....

Maybe that is the 'real reason' why unicorns are extinct - they are not able to love someone other than themselves. prancing around usually in the moonlight all snobby and pretentious. Thinking they are better than everyone else and special just because they have a horn on their forehead. Good for you, now gallop off. (except 'the last unicorn' - still love that movie)

Enough nonsense for today and long story short: was quite fun doing these.

another little side product.. bogooock.
