Anybody following this blog will realise that my updates were few and far between over the Summer. Handy then, for all my experience, that an illustration competition of the theme ‘Self-Motivation’ should land on my news feed. The brief from LMNOP Shop: to produce a 3-colour risograph-ready 190×190 image based on the aforementioned theme. I’d like to say it was easy because the concept did hit me as I was reading the brief through — of course, that could also mean it was a well written brief — but for the previous few months I had been trying to push myself to create a self-motivational poster to no avail. No matter, it was a winning entry. I like that. I don’t often enter competitions for various reasons of indignation, yet this one seemed fair and I had a good feeling about it. Win-win.

So here you can see the final product, and buy it, if you like. It’s lovely though, glad I’m getting two free copies. Note to self: Must research Risograph, I love it.
