I truly believe that if it doesn't work in black and white, it won't work in colour. In all designs and illustration this is a good starting point. These are some inspiration pictures, go make something black and white, I'm going to ;)
Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart. —Steve Jobs
Here is a random compilation of some of my work. These are invites I've made for friends & work I've done for Ogilvy Johannesburg, like poster design for Pan Macmillan & one presentation background for Coke. Also a Illustration made for myself.
