Honey jar label design - By Paige Critchley Designs

Unique Māori-Inspired Honey Jar Label Design

I’ve designed a honey jar label for a new company in New Zealand selling homemade honey and Inspired by the Māori people. I really enjoyed creating this, as it was quite an unusual and fun request and having lived in New Zealand for a few years when I was very young, I already knew a bit about the Māori people. I remember being at school in New Zealand and being taught the Haka dance. See pictures below of the final artwork and my design process/plan.

I hope you are having a great day! Thanks for visiting.

Logo for new gardening business

Drawings/illustrations, graphic design

A new gardening business, ‘Arnica Gardens‘ has just started up in B.C. Canada and I was asked to design the logo for it. It’s inspired by the Arnica flower and the client wanted to keep it looking joyful and bright by using the pops of colour in this flower within the logo. I travelled some areas of Canada, B.C. in particular, a few years ago and the colours that arrive at certain times of the year are really bright and gorgeous. This was a really enjoyable project. Read more below.

I use flowers and nature to inspire a lot of my work and also really enjoy drawing and painting these natural forms. Flowers, plants and other elements in nature can be seen in lots of my prints and graphics, mostly used in fashion and product. I have a section in my portfolio purely for flowers and plants, take a look by clicking here.

My first collection for Bleubird, the ‘The Wilder Collection’ is available now. I really enjoyed creating this collection for this brand. I get a lot of inspiration from nature and enjoy outdoor activities myself.

I started these designs by sketching ideas and then editing them and adding colour on Adobe illustrator. See below some examples of the design next to my original drawings:

Perks logo for NOWCA

graphic design

I recently designed a perks logo for NOWCA – the UK’s largest network of safe open water swimming venues. This is being used on their website at the moment, you can see it here.

I drew lots of options for this logo. The final artwork was a lot simpler than what I envisioned, but it looks great and I am pleased with the result. Here are all my drawings prior to finalising the artwork.

I love creating artwork for swimming related brands and companies, as it’s my favourite sport and I have swam competitively since the age of about 13. I also love open water swimming and surfing.
