These are the images for my Final Piece for the Metropolis project that I have based around Pubs. I tried to express Pubs as a High influence on Portsmouth’s history including the publics actions in Pub Houses. So many deals dealt, stories and rumors, and people (famous or not) that had enter these Monumental places to create history to this very day. This was the reason for the series of Postcards.

Invisible Creature//

Ryan (Left) & Don (Right) Clark two brothers are the founders of the Graphic Art studio Invisible Creature, Seattle. I best know these two from the band Demon Hunter, which till recently I had made the discovery of Invisible Creature which I can say truly inspired, shocked and motivated me. Being heavy influenced for design by music, and having been a Demon Hunter fan for the past 5 years. I never knew two band members from a band which has inspired me 5 years with music, would have ever added a lot more inspiration and passion towards my Creativity. Also having a huge number of major clients and musicians that I never discovered until 4 weeks ago. I had to check my P.O.D and Foo Fighters albums to be sure. So apart from the shock of the discovery…

… “Why has Invisible Creature really inspired me creatively??” Has I did some research into the Invisible Creature, and having a look into the back catalog of past and present work. I notice that within the Illustration and Design Creativity style remains mysterious, imaginative, and precise throughout. I also find some of the typographic style quite sufficient to the designs, such as the Foo Fighter’s “Echoes Silence Patience & Grace” and Norma Jean’s “O God The Aftermath”. I liked the way some of the text has been scratch out and etched in such a crude and rough style. I also liked the idea behind Hawk Nelson’s album “…is my Friend” by adding a new feature which was the Boardgame. Some thing I had never seen or as unique in any of the albums I had ever brought or seen.

If this has inspired you in anyway I would suggest researching into Invisible Creature and have a look at their back-catalog. I would just like to thank Ryan & Don clark for being an inspiration to me in so many ways. Whether it’s been Music or Graphics these two are extremely talented, passionate, and foremost uniquely imaginative, Thanks Guys! There will also be link to Invisible Creature website below. I would also suggest checking out Grain Edit’s website for the Invisible Creature interview (link below), Don Clark revivals all!
