Rebel Dogs

Contacted by a dog groomer in the UK to help her brand her new business. I had fun trying to come up with something gritty and made sure to stay away from the traditional bubbles and bones which are found in so many logos. Working from the name I treated it more as a video game and designed to how I thought it would appear in a virtual world. I created both small and long logos for the various uses she will need as well as a paw print that can be used as a secondary mark on promo materials.

The client was happy with the result and i’m sure there’s some freshly trimmed rebel dogs out there that are loving their new groomer!

Kandy Shop

As a designer, I love making bespoke items for friends and family. After speaking with a friend who has had success with Etsy, I decided to try my hand at a craft business. I have made several custom art prints for nieces, nephews and friends new babies, so I have branched into bespoke nursery decor. 

I had to start with a name and obviously an identity, this was a great fun task getting all this together, deciding on colours and styles that would work for my target market. I came up with Kandy Shop which is a play on my name (obviously!) this was taken on social media, so I added Prints to the name as a hark to what we create.

The shop is up and running, I have had orders and I am enjoying coming up with new art (sugar) to go into the shop each day. Please go have a look at my shop or social media, maybe I can add some sugar to your walls!!

Charity work

I had the opportunity to be part of a fun redesign for a charity coffee shop. I had a great time researching the areas history to come up with a design that matched the new name. Its finally coming together and I got a sneak peak of the window decal install. Here's a sneak peak, i'll update my folio page with the rest. 

Tee isnt just for drinking!

I have a Society 6 page where I love to doodle and create art and clothes. My most recent is a collaboration between Game of Thrones and the Toronto Maple Leafs, sound intriguing?! Check it out if you have time. Society6 - ConcordDawn. 

Sugar & Spice

I'm currently involved in an exciting project for a Baking company in the UK. 

They needed branding, so i've had fun creating the logo and all corporate materials for them, and a functioning website which the client can edit themselves, letting them add new products.

Sports Illustrated

I decided to try my hand at illustration, like everything I started with what I know and I know hockey! So I took a picture of Leafs winger Joffery Lupul, and started my project, so far its going good, hopefully I'll finish by the start of the 2013-2014 season!  (Maybe I'll put a C on that shirt!)
