One For The Road


One For The Road_ A final drink before one leaves a social gathering.




Sam Rigling's painting perfectly illustrates the point of this idiom and starts my research well.

Kevin Nayler again is perfectly illustrating the point here and in such a nice style too!

Here i have found a  ski poster advertising a new film called 'One For The Road'. Its interesting that they have chosen to literally illustrate the idiom using a road. Its a very complete piece of work and very complementary of itself in its use of colour hues and tones.

EODS presenting Willy Russell's play 'One For The Road' is again an alternative take on the theme and i guess the design is trying to portray a road...

Road sign art is intriguing and although i cant actually do this, i do think i will take the use of signs into account... (see sketchbook works).

Having collected and finalised my imagery here is the card below in the template i hope to continue with. I have chosen to do this because of the success the last range had with peers and tutors, thus not wanting to deviate too far. Note that the text is in the same fashion as the previous card range, adding continuity:


Here is the front and inside of the envelope developed and adapted from the previous card range project. I have changed the imagery to suit and complement this particular card. I am sticking with this design because it works most effectively and was a success previously.
