Hello and welcome to my new website
Welcome to the ‘Word-of-mouth Creative’ website - and yes I need to do some updates LOL. I’m not aiming for the hard sell, as you can see my angle is more casual and information based. Let me know your thoughts on the site? Any suggestions for content is very welcome. email me here.
Walls On Fire
Banksy is well-known yet pseudo-anonymous.
His artworks are often satirical pieces of art which encompass topics from politics, culture, and ethics. His street art, which combines graffiti with a distinctive stencilling technique, has appeared in London and in cities around the world. See more of his artwork here The message is usually anti-war, anti-capitalist, anti-establishment or pro-freedom. In addition to his artwork, Banksy has claimed responsibility for a number of high profile stunts, I like this one: At London Zoo, he climbed into the penguin enclosure and painted ‘We’re bored of fish’ in seven foot high letters.

Gray Line Australia is a long established Australian owned premium sightseeing company. The Driver Family has been operating since 1931 and have a fleet of over 85 vehicles with operations in Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Tasmania, Cairns, Perth, Alice Springs, Darwin, Brisbane and Gold Coast.
My objective was to enhance the look, feel as well as functionality of their current website to improve visitor interaction and increase sales conversion. Providing visitors with an interesting credible experience in the process.
Corporate Image
The humble business card is often said to be the most important marketing tool you’ll ever use. So with that in mind I went with a narrow design and a spot UV. Opting for a very simple logo ‘hey I couldn’t really go crazy being a design myself now could I’ Also pictured is a logo + business card I developed for a company that offers writing and editing services ’Word Has It’ a website is also in production.
Many companies, such as McDonald’s and Electronic Arts, have their own identity that runs through all of their products and merchandise. The trademark “M” logo and the yellow and red appears consistently throughout the McDonald’s packaging and advertisements. Many companies pay large amounts of money for an identity that is extremely distinguishable, so it can appeal more to its targeted audience.
The Square Red Book
Well what can I say an ‘open brief’ and a client with an ‘open mind’. Perfect for a designer I would say. So from start to finish this was a great project although there was a great deal of graphs and tables to make look attractive.
Thanks to Apple and ’Numbers’ charts and graphs are made easy (well once you get the hang of it anyway).
Another tight deadline had me working all night but the result was worth it for my client and myself. See a full copy (PDF) on The Victorian Litter Action Alliance website.
