The Penguin Brief went awry, very awry. Reading and researching the book was simple. I had a specific idea in my mind of what to do. However I was in a very big creative slump where I couldn't seem to make good work as I was struggling with my practice as a predominantly print based Illustrator. I, after finishing cop and not being happy with the end result. Decided to rebel against lino and focus almost solely on digital.
This didn't end well as I wasn't that enthused about digital either. As a result of that and a lack of guidance at the time I ended up producing this.
It was a very fourced piece that made me feel neither accomplishment of a development in my skill. I think sometimes you have to realise that forcing yourself to do something when not using the correct methods for your practice or any passion at all can kill a project and your drive very succinctly.
