Design Elements

June 22, 2025/ cracked ink

There's alot of elements that go into design and liaising with clients to really push the project into the right place so everyone is happy. I never compromise on my style and aesthetic, I always stay true to what I do, even if that means having to walk away from projects. Fortunately, I have some amazing clients, and they generally come to me because they really do want the full 'Cracked Ink' experience, this project for @lindisfarnecollege was no exception, a pleasure to work with and I believe that really does amount for the best creative outcome, stay true, work hard and ride the wave when things get tough

Cracked ink

My name is Simon otherwise known as Cracked Ink, I’m an artist from the Uk, I’ve been painting for over 14 years, I studied graphic design at Uni, and quickly got involved with the right crowd. Painting and basically getting up to mischief, quickly became huge part of my everyday life. I like to think I have continued on this journey by continually pushing, evolving my style and trying to perfect the skills of painting and creating in many mediums, predominantly painting with aerosols. Myself and my work has evolved drastically in the 8 years I have lived in New Zealand. I have met many like-minded people who do what I do because we love it, this is my passion, and a big part of my life. My work is predominantly quirky, bold characters which portray an array of emotions, expressions and general attitude that I get from everyday observations.
