What is "Illustration Friday"?
"Illustration Friday" is a creative forum of sorts. A word is thrown out once a week for anyone who's interested to create an illustration based on their individual interpretation. They then complete the work within the week and upload it onto the site for the others to see. A great way to share, learn and improve.
As the site creator explains, "We believe that every person has a little creative bone in their body. Illustration Friday just gives a no-pressure, fun excuse to use it. No clients looking for a particular thing. No one judging the outcome of the work. It's a chance to experiment and explore and play with visual art. So welcome, novices and pros alike."
Due to the often rushed nature of these challenges, some of my works in this category may not be as highly polished as when submitted to a client. So do critic them with a pinch of salt. Remember, it's supposed to be fun!

SINQSA
My Philosophy
I find communication work challenging, as it takes proper research and thought to zero in on the most suitable way to communicate a message. Many creative agencies provide random copy/designs, which only fulfil the minimal purpose of being there for the client to use. But is the maximum potential reached?
Pixel Hippie aims to do adequate research and digestion, only proposing concepts that I truly believe will work for the client. My double-set of skills in both academic (copywriting) and aesthetics (design) will ensure that each communication solution is well-blended.
Take a look at my portfolio (click on the pics to enlarge them), and do drop me a note if you're keen to offer an opportunity for collaboration.
