Pastiche for Smithwicks beer

Pastiche just about has time to change brushes between paintings! His last exciting venture was a series of squirrel paintings in different styles ranging from Gainsborough to contemporary, for fine Irish Smithwicks beer. The poster and ad campaign through adam&eveDDB is backed up with a TV commercial, and the original painting are proudly hanging in the boardroom of Smithwicks head quarters.

Love To Share

McCann Erickson Advertising have commissioned Gail Armstrong to create 10 images for Nestle's "Love to Share" campaign. The images, which focus on hands and bags of sweets,  are effective in design and clever in the way they reflect the title. Gail says "They are set against a single colour scene behind, which gives a sense of the location and atmosphere in which the different sweets might be shared. Everything in the images is made from paper - hands, bags, sweets, type - an entire world made of paper." You'll spot the first posters and point of sale pieces in selected London cinemas now.

Dave Hopkins

Dave Hopkins recently completed two pen and ink drawings for a Sygenta ad commissioned by Ogilvy Primary Contact. Dave’s authentic engraving style was perfect for the aged Victorian feel the client wanted to achieve. Accuracy was vital and various bee experts were on hand to give advice!
