FINE ARTS FESTIVAL 2023

The Orme School Fine Arts Festival is a unique and storied tradition dating back to 1968. In my time working at the school, designing the T-shirt artwork for the ensuing years FAF has been a true highlight. Using the skills and ideas of students, sketches are drawn, refined and selected to be worked with in Adobe Illustrator and/or Photoshop. Students take a crack and polishing the designs themselves, and I present tutorials to bring each design to professional quality. Finally the designs are voted upon by the greater community and we have our T-Shirt up for sale shortly there after.

2023: With the tagline "Expressing Love through Art" I was able to incorporate multiple students sketches into a design that is near and dear to my heart. In late 2022 my son was born, so silhouette of a father and young son were something I was heartened to see early in the process,. The encasing shape, composed of a starry sky, crescent moon, and fluffy clouds create the shape of a heart to match the theme. and the hand drawn aesthetic is a timeless favorite.
