A new cartoon sent out every weekday morning to your inbox [RSS version here.].
A wee chuckle to start your day off right etc.
Hugh, do you currently design the labels for Stormhoek? If not, you should. I’m not really knowledgeable on wines, so when I buy, I usually base off price, region and believe it or not, the design of the label. I can’t tell you how many times I have bought bottle of wine because of a uniquely designed label.
Aha! I’ve *finally* realised what your style (sometimes) reminds me of — Joan Miro (I’m probably wrong, but hey). Whatever, it’s a sterling update/development of that reference point.
Or perhaps I’m just hallucinating
Reckon this design is fab Hugh. A possible goer..?
David, yes, I’m working on new label designs as we speak:
