March 2010

This month I had the pleasure of designing the wine labels for a new release called the “Masters Collection”. The project was headed up by Wine Experience and was a collaboration with multi award winning wine maker Jim Barnes, International master of wine Andrew Corrigan and artist Tracey Keller.

I got to use Tracey’s artwork for the label design, which feature reproductions from her “New York Naked” exhibition.

I watched a disabled lady in her late 20’s make this cup of tea. She has only just learned how to make one by herself. She spilled milk and splashed hot water on the bench but she had a mission to complete and anyone could see the determination in her face. Her carer was behind her the whole time but never stepped in, even when I though she might drop the cup. It was clearly a struggle at times but she was so proud with the end result.

She smiled the whole time, especially when she sat down to drink it.
