Im pretty sure I've already talked about Edward Monkton a million times on my blog already but this time its actually relevant. My book brief has changed slightly because I want to do it more commercial so its easier to make sense of it. They are very much inspired by (and I'm scared they are ripped off of) Edward Monkton. I am doing some greetings cards now as well as the book, which is something he does and just using black ink, although I might experiment with a bit of colour if I have time. I really like the way the drawings are pretty crude but they work so well. I t makes me feel happy because I've slowly lost the power of good drawings skills since I left school (I used to be killer) and now I can't draw but I realise that it doesn't matter.
It would be my biggest dream ever if I could have a set of products like this made- in shops and everything! I'm going to contact Edward Monkton to see if he has any tips on how to make this happen. I think I would need to develop my own style more though because I don't really have one yet, I would also need to think of some good ideas and subjects for the products to be based around. Also there would have to be playing cards involved.
