Mural for Live Nation by BarneyIbbotsonIllustration in Manchester
Mural for Live Nation
This was one of a set of murals that entertainment company Live Nation commissioned me to design. This was displayed at a series of music festivals in the USA, in pavilions specially constructed to promote the Washington state winery Chateau Ste Michelle. Pictured here is the installation at the Two Step Inn Festival in Texas.
I am a freelance illustrator and graphic artist from Manchester. I have over 20 years' experience, in which time I have worked for such clients as Carlsberg, Lacoste and Live Nation.
Much of my illustrated work tells a story, either about a place, a person or an organisation. I relish the challenge of storytelling through graphics and always enjoy the research involved in ensuring the authenticity and accuracy of the story that I am portraying.
The work is often very detailed and contains visual references that help draw the viewer in and engage with the work.
Projects I have worked on include:
Murals for offices, festivals and public spaces;
Vinyl window graphics;
Editorial illustrations for magazines and reports;
Album covers and band merchandise;
Infographics and data visualisation;
Icons and logos;
Assets for animation;
Beer glass design;
Exhibition & event graphics;
Hand-drawn doodling;
Stained glass design;
Presentation design;
Personalised prints & birthday cards;
Temporary tattoos;
Graphics for clothing
I work predominantly with vectors (scalable digital artwork), but also have experience with hand-drawn techniques, and I am a keen doodler.
