It is also a fact that children have become increasingly sedate in an age of technological distractions. So this party pack was commissioned by the British Heart foundation to aid parents and guardians when organising traditional children's parties. I was asked to illustrate the front of fifteen cards that had game instructions on the reverse.<img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1739421/bhf pack shot .jpg" border="0" width="670" height="456" width_o="1000" height_o="682" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1739421/bhf pack shot _o.jpg" align="left" /> So the key to the project was for children to enjoy healthy parties, but the designers wanted to link the games in with the design of its contents. The games all had animal names like 'Dinosaur egg & spoon' and 'Koala bear hug'. So we came up with a wrapping paper look by using simple applied patterns to parts of the illustrations and fold backs on tails and ears to emphasize this. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1739421/New card set.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="532" width_o="1250" height_o="994" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1739421/New card set_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1739421/pack_contents_0.jpg" border="0" width="569" height="245" width_o="569" height_o="245" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1739421/pack_contents_0_o.jpg" align="left" /> http://www.rebeccasutherland.co.uk/Jungle-City-Edinburgh http://www.rebeccasutherland.co.uk/following/rebeccasutherland.co.uk/Jungle-City-Edinburgh Wed, 20 Jul 2011 10:27:18 +0000 Rebecca Sutherland 797418 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/Heshe front.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="957" width_o="1945" height_o="2780" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/Heshe front_o.jpg" align="left" /> This 3D fibre glass orangutan was painted for Jungle City in Edinburgh 2012, a project devised and directed by The Elephant Family.<img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/Heshe Back.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="1002" width_o="2048" height_o="3065" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/Heshe Back_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/Heshe left.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="929" width_o="2048" height_o="2842" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/Heshe left_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/Heshe right.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="847" width_o="1945" height_o="2460" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/Heshe right_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/P1020050.JPG" border="0" width="670" height="893" width_o="2048" height_o="2730" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/P1020050_o.JPG" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/P1020052.JPG" border="0" width="670" height="502" width_o="2048" height_o="1536" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/P1020052_o.JPG" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/P1020054.JPG" border="0" width="670" height="502" width_o="2048" height_o="1536" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/797418/P1020054_o.JPG" align="left" /> http://www.rebeccasutherland.co.uk/Waitrose-Good-to-Go-range http://www.rebeccasutherland.co.uk/following/rebeccasutherland.co.uk/Waitrose-Good-to-Go-range Wed, 20 Jul 2011 10:06:09 +0000 Rebecca Sutherland 1329497 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1329497/Screen shot 2011-07-06 at 09.12.13.png" border="0" width="670" height="493" width_o="835" height_o="615" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1329497/Screen shot 2011-07-06 at 09.12.13_o.png" align="left" /> I was asked to do this project for Waitrose via the world renown packaging company Turner Duckworth. I was briefed on six food groups that would make up the core range. The client liked the idea Turner Duckworth had proposed of a different illustration style that would unite on the shelf.<img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1329497/Good to go 1.JPG" border="0" width="670" height="502" width_o="2048" height_o="1536" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/1329497/Good to go 1_o.JPG" align="left" /> The images below show some of the packs in situ at Waitrose.

I was delighted to be asked by Gareth Howat to illustrate his ideas for the mini sheet. Using coloured card I made a cut-out representation of Stratford On Avon which featured the four theatres central to the company's history. Then we composed our little stage set to give prominence to the theatre actors within each perforated vignette. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/stamp 1.jpg" border="0" width="480" height="353" width_o="480" height_o="353" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/stamp 1_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/stamp 2.jpg" border="0" width="480" height="353" width_o="480" height_o="353" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/stamp 2_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/stamp 3.jpg" border="0" width="481" height="354" width_o="481" height_o="354" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/stamp 3_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/stamp 4.jpg" border="0" width="480" height="353" width_o="480" height_o="353" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/stamp 4_o.jpg" align="left" /> The bottom images are spreads from Stamp Magazine, May 2011; showing the construction of the set in John Ross' photography studio, with Jim Sutherland and Gareth Howat art directing. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/5635095480_83d092f53e_b-1.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="939" width_o="730" height_o="1024" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/37216/853676/5635095480_83d092f53e_b-1_o.jpg" align="left" />
