Sipsmith Ads by Pastiche
Phosphor's Jon Rogers has been working with Sipsmith on their new advertising campaign, under the Pastiche moniker.
The illustrations were for ads (to be used in print, point of sale and online) to launch Sipsmith's Origin 1639 Gin, a limited edition gin that redefines the origins of this quintessentially English spirit. The gin is rooted in a recipe from 1639, which proves that gin originated in England, not Holland as widely believed.
Sipsmith's team were looking for a piece painted in the style of an Old Master with period references, such as the clothing and the way the scene is presented, but with modern touches like the watch, earpods and mobile phone. Jon is a master of his craft and pulled off the brief exceptionally.
Even with multiple personalities, Phosphor's Pastiche artist was finding it hard to keep up with demand, so they now have a whole team of talented Pastiche illustrators taking commissions for your every need.
Each is a specialist in their own field but they also work well as a team on joint projects.So, you want Rembrandt’s ‘Christ on the Sea of Galilee’… By Thursday… Instead of Christ you want Meerkats… Mmm… Tricky one… What time on Thursday?
