    ...to the Ant Creations blog and website

    Illustration, Cartoons, Characters and Graphic Design

    Hello! As you've hopefully deduced from the title above, this site is dedicated to showcase my work on the world wide web and also explain a little about the kind of illustration and design that I create. My name is Nathan Shelton and I have been drawing and doodling cartoons as long as I can remember! I have a passion for creating funky artwork, cool characters, unique illustration and great design in general! I've been running Ant Creations the business since I started illustrating professionally in the year 2000, and am now based in Market Harborough, Leicester in the UK. Anyway enough with the reading, have a look around, check out my blog below and my work throughout the site, and if you need to get in touch I would love to hear from you. Kick back, relax and give your eyes a treat. Enjoy!

    Symitry IT triangular advert

    I haven't created many triangular adverts in the past. This one is for Symitry IT based in Market Harborough. Having such an unusual shape that still needs to contain all the usual company information created some interesting design problems that needed a bit of extra creativity to solve. Hopefully this does what it needs to do, whilst still being clear and easily noticed and read! Let me know what you think...

    RFU Injured Players Foundation rugby ball marathon illustration

    I've just created this A4 sized illustration on behalf of the RFU in England. The cartoon is to appear as half of an A3 poster that will promote the RFU Injured Players Foundation and will appear in every rugby club in England. The aim of the poster is to encourage many wonderful people in the rugby world to run a marathon for the RFU charity.

    It was a great illustration to work on and needed to be completed very last minute. The whole project went from initial conversation to finished artwork in just over 24 hours! Let's just say my eyes were a little tired by the end of it all. As usual I would love to know what you think, especially if you see the poster out and about in your rugby club. Feel free to leave a comment below. Enjoy!

    Vanilla emailer for OPAL seminar

    I have created many, many emailers for Vanilla Recruitment. Here is the latest one created to remind people about an upcoming seminar. You can see it online by clicking here. I'll add all the others I've designed over the years when I next get a chance. Watch this space...!

    Time lapse video ahoy!

    The sixth and final time lapse video from my Health and Safety series of illustrations. Check out the youtube video below (from Ant Creations TV) and please feel free to let me know what you think either on here (my blog) or on youtube itself.

    I do plan on creating many more time lapse vid's in the future, and I will obviously be posting them here first! Stay tuned and enjoy!
