Project:BABE 'Becoming' Exhibition

I'm submitting some work to project:BABE's 'Becoming' exhibition really soon and they asked me to do the launch poster for it too, here's the first version!

Epitaph For My Heart

I've just finished a lovely commision to illustrate one of my favourite Magnetic Fields' songs, Epitaph For My Heart.

Dance Yrself Fitter Artwork

Here's the poster and flyer that I designed for mine and my boyfriend's clubnight at The Star and Garter in Manchester, featuring Siouxsie Sioux and Lizzy Mercier Descloux! I used the same cut n' paste trad fanzine style that I used on my Typical Girls posters because it's super fun and fairly quick to do and I really love the aesthetic that you get with it. The first night went really well and I've already started organising the next one!

Underachievers Hooded Fang Poster

My most recent poster commission was an updated version of a poster for Manchester clubnight Underachievers Please Try Harder advertising their Hooded Fang gig at The Castle in Manchester's Northern Quarter. 

While I'm on the subject of Hooded Fang, I absolutely lovelovelove this single and the amazing animation that goes with it!

Sadly I didn't actually get to go to this gig as I was at the clubnight that me and my boyfriend organise, artwork for which will be in the next post!

Standard Fare / Tigercats / The Birthday Kiss

Another gig poster for Underachievers Please Try Harder.

Shrag

Shrag / Evans the Death / Chips for the Poor gig poster for Beautiful Strange.

Shura

Another poster for Beautiful  Strange. Shura describes her music as "night-folk" which I think is one of the loveliest names for a genre that I've ever heard ever.

Pull Yourself Together

Gig poster for Pull Yourself Together. This is the second poster I've done for The School, but hopefully this one's a bit better!

Alcopopalooza

Gig / alldayer poster for Alcopopalooza 4 for Alcopop! Records and DIY Magazine. Credit for the tote bag idea goes to my beautiful bro Josh. Soz for the typo, Sam Isaac.

Party Hard

Poster for a new Manchester ~pArTy~ clubnight called Party Hard at The Star and Garter (one of the loveiest pubs in Manchester).

This is the Kit

Delta / Alaska

Another gig poster for Beautiful Strange. 

And here it is three quarters of the way through drawing, just because.

The colouring took exactly four Mountain Goats albums, just so you know.

Emily and the Woods / Big Brown Owl

Another poster for Beautiful Strange, I really like how the trees in the background came out.

Big Pink Cat

Another poster I've just finished for Underachievers. Worra beaut.

New Gig Poster

Tripwires show poster for Loomer Booking Agency. I love doing gig posters and I think this is my favourite one yet.

More (Old) Gig Posters

 I found these in the deep, dark depths of the internet (an old MySpace account to be specific) from gigs I organised in 2009-ish, at least they show I've improved?!

That Lovely Eggs gig was awesome.

Gig Posters

These are some posters for gigs I organised a couple of years ago. Really want to start putting gigs on in Manchester, might have a go once I move out of halls.

Allo Darlin' Poster

Here's a poster I illustrated for a gig that Underachievers are promoting in Manchester. I love Allo Darlin', I organised a gig for them in Sheffield a year or two ago and it was wonderful so I'm really excited for this one!
