Things on Fire | Graphic Illustration and Design Freelance graphic designer and illustrator based in Leeds, West Yorkshire.

I have a website which is increasingly feeling to me like a cobbled together mish mash of small amounts of html and CSS I force myself to understand, and I love that.
Anyway, I've updated it with a few recent projects so please have a look!
thingsonfiredesign.com

a spread of 16x16, 2 color characters from the post-jam version of my 7drl project. various oracles and mystical beings, some people disguised as devils, some skeletons, a grave digger.

if you appreciate my art, design, procedural, or experimental work, or design analysis, please consider supporting me or reposting! i'm /extremely/ good at living frugally but i would like to eat better and get a new computer. i'm aiming to get to $1000 a month.

if you’re discouraged from being curious, you’re discouraged from incorporating new knowledge about the world and discouraged from asking why things are the way they are and imagining different ways of doing things

authoritarians love discouraging curiosity!

No, they should go further, make it a scavenger hunt! A series of instructions leading you completely across the whole of the packaging

Difficult to hook up with a Nazgûl, they're only really into guys who already have a ring on their finger

Had my first "read a book on the step in the sun" of the year, and it felt fantastic

I love basically everything these two do, so go check them out if you don't already

Logo I made for the band I play drums in. Skateboard graphics and horror film typography influenced lettering in bright warm colours.

Fun part of being a designer in a band is getting to make your own band logo

Newcastle pubs ban AI art from breweries to protect local creatives As two pubs in Newcastle ban AI art, artists discuss the impact it can have on creatives.

"If I was to use ChatGPT for my designs rather than our designer Sean, that's taking money out of the local area into the hands of a multibillionaire ... removing value from the local community and local artists [and] into the hands of some of the richest people in the world."

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.
