Welshness

Two Welshie briefs!
The first was from the London Welsh Trust for their Mad March Challenge (Sialens Fawr Mawrth) membership campaign. So I had a go with my only goal to be to make it as uncheesy as possible.
I quite like it if I'm honest. Unfortunately they didn't choose my design. But I did get runner-up and will be included in their magazine, so that's pretty cool too I sppose.

The second brief was a poster design for the Welsh theatre company Theatr Iolo for the German play Visiting Katt and Fredda. They wanted a fairly simple design with a limited palette.
I totally forgot to write up a little 'sell-it' statement to go with it. It would have included something about "the orderly cups representing the two protagonists' lives before the third cup(visitor) comes and wrecks it up and makes their world complicated like so many tangled strands of hair dyed green with jealousy"... Or something to that effect. Must remember to include the rantings next time.

Now that I think about it, it looks a bit more like a book cover really... And I've seen some strong designs from friends so I'm not getting my hopes up about this one, but it's always good to enter and see what happens.

edit: Theatr Iolo submission was unsuccessful too unfortunately :(
