                                                                      Kate Moross

Kate Moross is an English graphical designer, illustrator and art director who is mainly based in London. Moross studied at South Hampstead high school, Wimbledon school of art and achieved a ba at the Camberwell school of art. Not much else is known about her personal life as she has kept private but a lot is known about her working life.



Her designs are recognised all over the country working for big companies like cadburys and ford to promote there main products at the time. She has also worked for social media companies such as Skype and newspapers like the guardian. Her art style is also shown in her clothing and hair styles which is typically brash unique and a explosion of colour. 

My favourite image that she has done is the 4th image on the list that i have put on this blog. I really love the way that the colours have all been used to make this image standout. The different kinds of fonts for the words are all really cool looking and if you have a good eye you could notice the way the style changes depending on the word. For example dancing is swirly and shaky to match the quick movements that dancing requires. Also the text style stands out as it is usually bold, big and colourful so that it can really catch the eye of people who see and add a sense of positivity. 

To do this great work of art takes a lot of time and effort. To start with she hand draws the entire image in order to get a idea of what she wants the final image to be. Once she has made her decision she scans the image into photoshop in order to point out some issues and make the necessary adjustments. Finally Kate uses illustrator to add colour to it and give it that well known Kate Moss style touch. 

The images below are more examples of Kate Moross work the bottom picture is the one that i have chosen as my favourite image that i have seen her do.
