Creative Mondays 25 – Time

// May 14th, 2012 // No Comments » // Creative Mondays, Graphic Design, Inspiration

“What is Creative Mondays?

Monday’s are always a drag. The start of a new week, you have to go back to that routine of going to bed early/get up early. If (like me) you have to commute then you prepare for that long journey into work and that long journey back for the first time after a nice two day break.

So to kick off those lousy Mondays, I’m going to get my creative mind flowing in a positive way. Creative Mondays. A chance for me to show off something unfinished or finished that I’ve been working on throughout the previous week.”

Sometimes inspiration can come from the strangest of places. Just today someone I knew sadly passed away. There’s often a moment of reflection and everything gets put into perspective. We’ve only got so much time so let’s make the most of it.

I found this amazing image that I used for the background of this piece. You can find it here.

The 18th in the series of Creative Mondays brings you some good ‘ol sunshine! It’s been such a sunny awesome weekend that I couldn’t resist posting something about that gorgeous Sol! For most of us in the UK seeing the sun is something to be believed! Let’s hope it sticks around for a while and gives us all a much needed energy boost!

This week brings another piece ‘plucked from the brain of Stanley’. It was really just experimentation with white space and minimalism that got me to this result. I’m pretty hooked on this font at the moment (I used it for the CreativeJUUS logo) and I’m just playing around to see what works.

This week’s Creative Mondays piece is just a nice reminder to myself. I’m only at the beginning of a big adventure and there’s so much still to learn. There’s so much inspiration out there and if you’re a budding designer/illustrator or creative person in general then I’d suggest getting yourself on Twitter and explore the plethora of talent and knowledge.
