Chalkboard signwriting for Fortnum & Mason Food & Drink Awards 2014.

Last month I was hired by the nice folks at the Seven Dials PR agency (www.sevendialspr.com) to design and produce a press board for the Fortnum & Mason Food & Drink Awards 2014, in front of which the foodies and celebs will have their photos taken. It was a fun day in London which ended in myself being covered in turquoise and gold paint, and Fortnum & Mason having an 8-foot by 5-foot press board for their event. Lovely.

Fortnum & Mason. Chalkboard. Sign writing. Piccadilly. London.

Spent a day last week roaming around the seemingly endless corridors, stairways and shopping areas of Fortnum & Mason's flagship store in Piccadilly, London. I wasn't just there to look confused and to bother people for directions, I also had the time to create an 8-foot by 5-foot step and repeat board (or 'press board') for an event they're having shortly. The purpose of it I hear you ask? Well, they snap photos of celebrities and VIP's in front of the board whilst they're attending the event and everyone gets a bit of publicity from it. Voila!

Signwriting. Chalkboards. Blackboards. A busy two weeks.

After a mental (very busy) couple of weeks, I have finally gotten around to posting the latest images of my signwriting and chalkboard exploits. They include a trip down the road to my local Vodka Revolution bar to do some signwriting, a train ride to Portsmouth to draw up some monstrously large menus at All Bar One in Gunwarf Quays, and a bus ride to my local climbing centre in Brighton. Lovely.
