R.I.P. A-K.

Early this year [2009], whilst I was in Hong Kong, several friends emailed me and disclosed that a friend had passed away. Anne was my graphic design teacher at college and a friend more than anything. She was build like steel and had charm, that's why everyone who was in her class respected her so much. 

I've been creating a painting in respect and memory for Anne. This painting has an organic concept type germinating from a tree. The [dead] tree represents Anne's physical being. The shoots and leaves, and the type represents that life continues. My spin on this that Anne affected my life and that my career and creative skills were influenced by her. This painting is somewhat her legacy. It shows that what she had taught me, always to try something new. So i have. Painting. I continue to remember her in my work. Basically, if it wasn't for her, I wouldn't be nearly the creative designer I am today. Fact. 

So, this if for Anne and her lovely family. 

She still lives on in our hearts.
