The Challenge
To create a diverse range of children's characters for Children's clothing and accessory business 'Kids Run Tings' based in Bristol. The client wanted the children's designs to be relatable and easy to understand. This was my first ever freelance brief. Sadly the business no longer exists, but the experience was invaluable on a project which lasted around 11 months.
The Process
The process required a fair bit of sketch conceptualisation work at the beginning before I transferred the work to Adobe Illustrator. These were my first-ever digital illustrations, so I wanted them to be quality! I had weekly catch-ups with the client to shape each character and ensure total satisfaction!
The Outcome
I created eight characters that were used on clothing, accessories, and a website! This is one of my proudest projects today because, at the time, it took me so out of my comfort zone! It was in this project I really learned how to effectively liaise with external clients in a freelance gig (2013).
I have since drawn many illustrations both in a freelance, and hobby capacity, of which you can find on my other portfolio page.
