Seth Lakeman May 2009 Tour Merchandise

Seth Lakeman, the Mercury music prize nominated Folk Musician, has asked me to design his latest tour merchandise.

The T-Shirts, Mugs & Bags will be available on his UK tour throughout May 2009.

Available to work in Sydney Australia

I have just arrived in Sydney, Australia on a 1 year working Visa, and I am looking for work (full-time or contract).

I can offer a company an opportunity to obtain a designer with multi faceted abilities across many skill sets and media delivery. I have over 5 years experience in the creative industries, with clients worldwide; and a selection of my work can be viewed at http://www.nelson5.com

I would appreciate any feedback you may have, or opportunities that you may have available at this time. Or even some pointers you may have for me.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Travel Working

As some of my customers "may" know I am travelling around South America, working as I go.

I have been away for 3 months now in Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Bolivia & Chile. Our travel blog is here - http://www.travelblog.org/Bloggers/Iola-and-Steve/

I have been using an "Asus Eee PC 1000H". A cheap alternative to my Sony Vaio which I have left in the UK, ready to be shipped to join me in Australia.

Wi-Fi connections are readily available in South America in most Hotels, Hostels and MacDonalds. Less so in Bolivia, but you can still find some. The Eee PC is holding up well running Adobe Illustrtor CS2, Photoshop CS2, Dreamweaver etc etc with good results.

I have picked up new design work and continued with existing customers well, and have been able to respond quickly to customers needs. The travel/work dream is possible!!!

7 Months remain, in Australia and New Zealand. Updates to follow.

CLASH & CLASH - Photographic Agency

Founded late 2007 by three young photographers, the Clash & Clash Photographic Agency is a new approach to photography. Conventionally photographers working independently hold onto their clientele, offering no range of experience, style or even price. Clash and Clash believe you should have the freedom and access to a wealth of photographers under one roof, working from the same stable, and should benefit from our team of collaborators.

With a large studio based on the beautiful South Devon coast, and a great design team, C&C can provide a service that others simply can't. A fast, efficient and young forward thinking team of people all with a shared intention; to amaze you our valued client with our work centered on you.

Tea Appreciation Society Loose Leaf

The Tea Appreciation Society are a bunch of creative tea drinking types. Having stormed the social networking communities of myspace and facebook, they have managed to produce a wide range of Tea related products, with the latest being their very own loose leaf tea.

The design is in keep with their corporate look, with the "I ♥ Tea" being an integral part of their brand.
