Dismantipples - the project that never quite was...(yet)

This was one of the original project ideas i had during my extended practice prep work in the summer. 

I like drawing food & drink. I don't do it much and I wanted to make a collection of 
designs based around food or drink, done in my signature style in order to eventually, possibly pitch it to food/ drinks/ advertising companies, bars/restaurants or  design agencies.

Dismantipple origins

Although i did a fair bit of development on the 1st edition, Bloody Mary; even shifting a few digital prints of it,displaying it at the North Leeds Food Festival and more recently getting it Riso printed as a piece of promo material (which i'm over the moon with the results) - i never keet the wheels rolling with it.

A4 Risograph versions

As sad as it sounds, there honestly isn't a day that i wake up and don't think "aghh i should really start a new cocktail design" - but it kept getting pushed further and further to the back of the pile of projects, briefs and commissions, so much so that i'm not sure it will fully see the light of day.

Untill now....

With the final hand in on the 15th, and a degree show display proposal to sort out, there's a window of opportunity for a scaled down framed series of maybe 3 new Dismantipples to finally make an appearance?

With so many bars in the area i'm sure there would be a market for the designs beyond the degree show, plus the Bloody Mary riso prints have gone down really well. So i'll be making an effort to kick start this project as soon as i'm no longer bogged down in blogs and project boards.
