[Study Task 1] - Identify 10 examples of design that illustrate your fields of creative interest
Music doesn't just bring musicians into my field of interest it also brings artists along with it too, one of them been Stanley Donwood. Famous for collaborating mostly with Radiohead on their album covers and promotional material. His work continues to inspire me as he's inspired by the musicians. His work really ranges, I really like his Lino prints that he created for 'The Eraser' which are incredibly impressive to see. The work that goes into albums is what I really admire, I love flicking through the booklets that come with them.
I've always had a huge curiosity for Pixel art, It's got a certain charm to it that I find myself coming back too. It's not that it's really all that practical it's just impressive that someones draw with dots to create that which gets me, although the same could be said for digital art of any kind.
The Baltic art gallery's shopping bags caught my attention when I was there last, I was never able to get one but I ended up phoning them up and they sent a load of them down when I ordered online which was pretty nice of them. Created by Founded I love all kinds of promotional material that interacts with the holder like these too.
Constructivism first caught my attention on a BBC4 documentary called 'Smashing the mould' seeing these works that were created from paper amazed me. They were so simple, yet they were incredibly effective at what they were communicating. I was inspired, this eventually got me into finding out why which is just as interesting

| Jon Burgerman I haven't found a illustrator that is as colourful and childishly charming as Jon Burgerman's work, doodle art such as this is while at the same time rather crude. I have to say it's rather effective. It doesn't really have much of a target audience, other than them been doodles. They're just what they , simple scribbles half the time anyway. |

| Stefan Sagmeister Stefan sagmeister's use of materials and concepts is what I really like, creating work from any other means other then simply creating work in illustrator/photoshop and banging that out. A lot of it has a lot more than that put into it. This bananas one been an example, the ripe ones showing the writing within and the pattern. I find it rather inspiring. |

| Jean Baptiste Mondino's Album Photography. [Bjork - Post] Again with the album covers, I really like photography works as well. It's not all the design related, but it's a creative interest of mine. Photography. JBM been another inspiration, photography is just another way of communication a message.  Movie posters, especially simple colours are also a huge favourite of mine, effective ones that give you a concept of the film. West side story gives the hint of it been a musical simply from the stances of the woman and man, the flinging of themselves it's awfully camp but it's example the attitude in the film. It's work like this I'd hope to one day to produce. |

| Olly Moss - Rubber Another more modern take and perhaps Saul bass, but its simply to illustrate my interests in movie posters, the simplicity is sometimes all that's needed. I like to try and stick to this thinking when I working only trying to keep what I need and getting rid of any embellishments that don't communicate. |
