Jazz


Last week I was seeing a really nice documentary on BBC4 about Ella fitzgerald, and they were talking about her first band ...I cant remember the name right now... but I noticed a poster of their first concert, and it was amazing!! So, I had the idea of doing this poster.
Lately I've been feeling this need of starting to experimenting with fonts, and try to understand were do they work better. I still have to practice more...but I think I'm in the right track.
By the way, this poster it's dedicated to another bar that I used to go in Lisbon. It was a nice place, with nice jazz music...and sometimes wierd things could happen...mainly in the toilets...but that's another story...hehehehe. Enjoy!

Nature


As you may noticed, lately I've been doing some posters with a certain 70's vibe. I guess it's the influence of a poster I seen few months ago in a rock pub here in England. I juts love this type of vintage style. I wasnt sure about the colours, but I guess in the end it turn out ok. Probably I will add some lettering later on. Enjoy!

Clandestino


Finally I finished the things I had to do this week, and what is the best way of celebrating that...work a bit more!!! So, I decided to pay tribute to one of the bars I used to go when I was living in Lisbon. Its a quite dark place, is always playing the same albuns, Nirvana, Pixies, Pearl Jam and Manu Chau... all the time...they didn't chance anythign in 10 years. Oh and by the way, the name of the bar is Clandestino. Enjoy!

Attraction


This is a poster for a contest in Czech Republic. The objective was to creat something connected to attraction. So I decided to get an old drawing I did in a previous poster, and try to bring it to a completly different level using new graphic elements. I'm quite happy with the final result. I did strugle a bit with the type of lettering to use, but I guess the good old classic Helvetica still saves the day... Enjoy!

Wine


I've been quite busy lately. Projects to finish, things to take care of... So I didnt do anything specially for the blog. This time I'm going to show a Poster that I've been doing for a company of wines in Spain.
I had loads of fun doing it. But I have to say that this time I did strugle a bit to imagine and, more important, to do the graphic elements... but in the end I think it came out alright. Enjoy!
