This year I have been drinking a whole lot of tea, I guess im making up for lost time, as well as having my cake and eating it, I guess this is down to my studio mates influences, which I guess is not completely a bad thing. The above illustration was to celebrate my tea and cake indulgence.

I was contacted by David & Goliath Design Agency Based in Texas, USA. to create a a Christmas card for thier client Borden Diary, Holiday Christmas Card 2011 Illustration. The Creative team were looking to create a holiday message that features the Borden’s icons, The icons were arranged and created into snow flakes. The artwork will be printed with silver ink on to a traditional Chrsitmas card, and sent to spread the Christmas cheer, as well as a email mail out using the above snow flake illustration artwork.

The Tote Bag book. I had worked very hard on the book, having written and designed, and project managed the book. I could not resist seeing it on its oficcialy published date in book shops today in London town, I was extemely thrilled to say the least to see it amongst other design books holding its own. Thanks for the kind commets from admirers of the book. 

I created a advertising test illustration for a drinks company, unfortunately the job went in another direction, theses things happen, a great portfolio piece.

I Have been creating a series of artworks for the Oscar Wilde Murders written by Gyles Brandreth and Commissioned by John Murray Publishing.

I have been kindly given copies of the books for my archive and above are 3 of the book artworks which I am very proud of.

Ralph Lauren approached me to create a pattern for some new packaging, which would be used on bags and perfume boxes, I was sent some images of the perfume box photography shoot images, and I cant express how pleased I am, I will certainly have to purchase the gift box for my artwork archives.

Jitesh Patel, Creates Logo for Lingerie Brand Modern Cortesan

December 8, 2010

Jitesh Patel, Creates Logo for Lingerie Brand Modern Cortesan I was commissioned by Modern Courtesan to create a new lingerie logo for the brand. I discussed ideas and concepts with the owner Kelly Isaac, and was shown lingerie pieces from the collection. The vision for the brand was sexy, playful, and modern, incorporating lust, love life. My initial ideas and brain storming developed into a key idea. The key represents secrecy and playfulness behind locked doors where you let your inhibitions and desires let loose.
