Hearts & Hands | Heather Tompkins

i realize i haven’t posted anything new in a while, but i’ve been too consumed with trying to find a new place to live and packing, and interviewing, and all that stuff. but i have a couple of completed works, please observe: 

the finished Patrick poster, tada!!! aaaaand:

Oryx & Crake the website, which is being animated by Ryan, the lead in the band. the cogs turn and there is a crake that flies across the screen, and more victorian prettiness on the other pages etc. I’ll let you know when it goes live, dont worry! as soon as i move houses, hopefully i’ll be producing more work, so stay tuned oh faithful readers!!!

So my cousin went to Libya to location scout for a film she has in the works. Needless to say the pics she snapped were amazing, so i’ll be excited to work on it when its gets going, hopefully sometime next year. Here is a sneak peek at some press i cooked up on her behalf. Its all very rough, but there will be more later hopefully….

this is totally cool, it reminds me of one of the rooms my fam and i stayed in in an art hotel in Europe (i think it was in Germany or Austria): Sharpie Basement!!!

just something im working on….

some good news! Vanessa Ruiz, author of street anatomy, has just added me on as a guest poster! so now i get to post all the anatomical goodies i find on the web and beyond. be sure to check it out, it’s a pretty sweet blog, and im super excited to be a part of it! bookmark it, contribute to it, comment on it, tell everyone awesome about its awesomeness. you know the drill

STREET ANATOMY!!!!

i thought this was interesting. and funny. enjoy

here are some more SUUUUUUPER rough poster ideas… 

i’ve done quite a bit of poster rescuing these days, and this is my latest attempt. basically i get given a less than par poster and get told to make it awesome. so, here goes nothing… the first image was pretty much verbatim of what i was given, and then i used my creative license to make two new posters which i think should be used in lieu of the original.

before and after:

and the new and improved: 

i like the dead guys best.

and no i dont mean the smashing pumpkins album. i just watched this movie on line and it blew my mind. sorry for the artisticly unrelated post, but on a film note i think everyone should see this thing, it’s totally mind boggling. hang in there, it takes a while to load (it is 2 hours long) and the beginning 10 min or so are slow, but it gets really interesting really fast.

another rough shirt idea… 

a little visualization.

this is the last time i post these fricken things, promise. they are done and done! time to celebrate! hopefully one or both will be in print soon, cross your fingers. you can get in touch with Rachael Cantu to snag one if you want. 

just for fun and portfolio.

here is a shirt design in the works…
