Sleep Drawing

A couple weeks back I woke up in the middle of the night, quickly scribbled down this sketch and fell back to sleep:

Safe1-2

I awoke the next morning with only a vague recollection of my nighttime doodle. But what did it mean? Why was it so important for me to remember? Did it have something to do with being safe? Getting carried away with safety? Just what was Sleeping Carey trying to tell Awake Carey?

After a few days of scratching my head, I though “Well, I don’t know what it means but let’s see what I can do with it.” So this project had no client, no deadline and no product to sell. It’s just something I worked on after-hours whenever I could steal a little the time. It’s safe to say I did it for no particular reason.

Remote Control

Busy times here at CJGA but we want to do a quick followup on a set of illustrations we created late last year for Remote Learner.

Remote Learner has recently launched a new division to market their e-learning services for government agencies in the UK and Ireland and needed a new illustration that quickly says ‘Government’ and ‘British isles.’ With the entire set of graphics our goal was to quickly tell their ‘story’ in an abstract business editorial style that speaks to big ideas.

A Remote Possibility

This is a set of illustrations we created for another internet technology company named Remote Learner. They specialize in designing, implementing, hosting and supporting online education programs for scholastic, higher-education, corporate and government clients. They needed a set of graphics to help tell their story in an engaging manor. Our goal from the outset was to create a simple visual language with reoccurring elements for instant readability. Yet we didn’t want the final graphics to be to literal. They needed to live with one foot in the abstract business editorial world. The final style we developed combines sharp geometric shapes with a consistent cohesive color pallet overlapping organic painterly textures for to create a sense of place where “big solutions” live.

This is a group of quick business editorial style illustrations we created for the Alternative Board who provide business improvement advisory and consulting services. The concept for the illustrations is based on the idea of “There” as an idyllic mythical place where your business should be. The graphics express getting “There,” steering your business “There,” and building your business “There.”

We’ve posted about this before but we wanted to share. A while back we designed some football jerseys for degenerate standup comedian extraordinaire Doug Stanhope. Today we found a couple promo shots of him wearing our design. It warmed the cockles of our hearts

This is a series of graphics we recently created for a mobile data company to explain different aspects of their proprietary technology. This is a good example of our process for illustration projects because, in this instance, we created two distinct sets of four preliminary designs for our client to choose from. While the first four take a abstract conceptual approach, the client ultimately selected Option B because of their more literal infographic direction. All in all, it was an fun project and everyone involved is happy with the results.
