D is for DUERDEN

Our awesome artist Neil Duerden lives in a world of energy, motion, and technicolor. He is well know for his vibrant, hip 3D illustrations (see Wonka image on right) and has developed an impressive client list, including Amazon, Samsung, Sony, Powerade, Wonka, and BMW. Fortunately, Neil brings the same vivacity and passion to his artistic process, which we are excited to share here in this Mendola Exclusive!

Recently, Neil received several requests for "heavily rendered text," so decided to promote his 3D text skills with a unique discipline. Neil challenged himself to create 26 pieces in the span of 2 weeks; each piece would represent a single letter of the alphabet (as in: A is for Apple) and would represent one of Neil's typographic styles. As Neil notes, this alphabet can serve as a style indicator and source of reference for Art Directors worldwide.

Although Neil's alphabet site isn't complete yet, we are excited to share some preview images here!


"H is for Hair"
"V is for Van"



"TYPOGRAPHY:
26 Letters Created in 2 Weeks"

















Always developing his style, Neil has also created several independent test images for L'Oreal, Ford, and xBox360. We are so proud to have such a prolific and talented artist on our Mendola team!
