Jack of Spades

Illustration I did for Versus – didn’t get chosen as the final playing card, but will be used in their promotional poster for the exhibition launch in Bristol in September. The palette this year was limited to three main colours, and I chose the Jack. I had intended on creating various well known ‘Jack’ characters, Jack & the Beanstalk, Jack the Hat, Jack the Ripper etc.

Eventually Jack and the Beanstalk was the one I chose, with the beanstalk echoing the spade motif in the background.

UPDATE: Sneaky peek of the poster for the Bristol exhibition can be viewed here. Or the final one – here.
