The Christmas Outlaw

Yeah, I know it's not even November yet, but hell we've had Christmas rammed down our throats   since we were still in flip flops and bermuda shorts and pretending we were having a lovely British summer.

I've just designed my first Christmas card of what will hopefully be a small range. It's a bit of a two fingers up or flicking the bird (whichever you favour) to the great man himself..... Father Christmas. I just can't believe he's that nice anyway or else he would bring us presents all year round and not just when we are freezing our nuts off with the energy companies bleeding us dry.

The Norwich Tap House

I was recently asked to design a paper-cut by the newly opened Norwich Tap House.

They sell lots of really great beers including a lot of independent ones and also some of my favourite from Camden Town Brewery. Check out some of the fabulous designed beer labels on the bottles in the fridge, you'd be crazy not to sample the contents of one, two or several too!

Of course whenever beer is mentioned then I'm all over it like a rash so it didn't take me too much persuasion to get my scalpel into action, the outcome is below. 













The super talented guys at The Norwich Tap House have done an amazing job of the decor in the beautiful old building that everyone in Norwich knows as 'the old Country & Eastern'  and the design was inspired by the swags of hops around the window.

November Paper-cut Workshops

It looks like November is going to be a busy one, this is good news -  anything to keep me out of trouble and fend off the winter blues.

In addition to the workshops I will be running at Norwich Arts Centre (follow link) http://norwichartscentre.co.uk/paper-cut-workshop-3-nov-2012/ I will also now be running paper-cut workshops from my Railway Cottage in Norwich. The details for these workshops can be found in the ad below and on my website at http://www.suowendesign.com/
