Artist copy/research.


This shows a portrait created using the style of Jorge Alderete for 'The Toolkit Project'. I based this on the original idea and figure, using similar materials and techniques to create an overall effective piece with a similar style and outcome. I used a black marker pen (Sharpie) to draw the portrait and blue and green acrylic paint for the bold, colourful shapes placed over the face.

This logo is now used on many things such as aprons and the cups.

Developed Digital Snitterjipe

I think this creates a much more animated and cartoon like character due to the flat colour and simple shapes.
