Vector illustrator and designer...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!
Monday, May 28, 2012 at 2:22PM The Queen will be celebrating Her Diamond Jubilee over this next weekend. The Langton Brewery have created a special beer to commemorate the occasion and I have had the pleasure of creating the artwork below. I'm not sure if Her Majesty enjoys a pint but I'm sure she would like this one! Let me know what you think. Enjoy!
Tuesday, April 3, 2012 at 12:58PM Another one of my time lapse video! Here's 90 minutes of illustration and design work for The Langton Brewery condensed into a few minutes. The project was for a pump clip for the new beer Bullseye Stout. Be sure to check out my video's page and if you enjoy them, why not subscribe to my AntCreationsTV youtube channel. Enjoy!
Monday, March 26, 2012 at 11:15AM Here's the latest pump clip designed for The Langton Brewery in Thorpe Langton, Leicestershire. The beer is called Bullseye Stout and the image is inspired by Bill Sikes dog from Charles Dickens novel Oliver Twist. As usual would love to know what you think. Cheers and enjoy!
Monday, February 27, 2012 at 4:42PM I created this simple advert to promote the Langton Brewery's new beer called 'Spring Madness'. It is to appear on the front cover of a magazine used by a wholesaler to the pub trade. It needed to be simple and Spring themed to get the message across quickly to the beer buying public.
You can check the time lapse movie showing how I created the beer pump clip artwork by visiting my video page. You can also check out my portfolio to see the other beer labels and pump clips I've created for The Langton Brewery over the years. Enjoy!
Tuesday, November 8, 2011 at 3:10PM Here's the latest design for The Langton Brewery's new beer. As you can see it's called 'Angler', and the design needed to represent a happy fisherman and his prize catch. The beer is only available on draught at the moment, hence the reason this is a pump clip and not a bottle label. If you are in the area (Market Harborough, Leicestershire UK) then you might just see it in your local pub! As always let me know what you think, and please send me a pic if you see it sitting cheerfully behind a bar near you!
