We’re looking for freelance graphic designers / artworkers to add to our database. Designers should have a good eye for detail, be able to work quickly and efficiently, use their initiative, and be able to be called upon at relatively short notice. Designers will mainly be required to work on our personalised items. Work will not be constant, but we will call on successful designers as and when we need them. Designers will be required to work on a mac, and have Adobe Indesign & Photoshop CS5 (preferably). All working will be remote, so location is not a problem.

If you are interested, please email your CV and some examples of your work to shop@beargraphics.co.uk

We look forward to meeting you!

After an exciting first year of trading in 2011, 2012 is looking bright here at Bear Graphics.

Firstly, we are joined by Tanya, who will be working with us on our creative product development, and our ever growing mountain of admin. Tanya has a degree in Fine Art and has a vast experience of high street retail, having worked at several high profile retailers, most recently as part of the management team at Paperchase.

Secondly, a new year will be bringing a new name. Bear Graphics will shortly be changing to The Drifting Bear Co., and our new home will be at www.thedriftingbear.com. We feel a little restricted by our current name, and the new The Drifting Bear Co. will allow us to branch out into new areas. We’ll still be offering all the products and services we do now, as well as lots more to come in 2012.

Thirdly, we are looking for freelance designers to join our team. If you are interested, please email david@beargraphics.co.uk.

And finally… we have a dog. He’s called Sydney.

Have a great 2012.

We love getting requests for custom designs, especially this one did yesterday. After buying a personalised coordinate print a few weeks ago, our customer loved it so much they wanted the print designed to fit on a pair of flip flops. Each flip flop is designed with the coordinates of the couples home towns, and a pair will be given to all the guests as favours at their wedding in Rio, Brazil. Apparently it’s common in Brazil to give Havaianas as favours, as it also helps girls to dance longer!

I wonder if we’ll get an invite… ?

Loving the new video for the Ben Howard song, Old Pine, directed by surf photographer Mickey Smith. Also check out Mickey Smiths amazing ‘Darkside of the Lens’ below. Goose bumps!

We’ve just found out that Bear Graphics has been nominated for The Notonthehighstreet.com Make Awards 2011, in two categories! Our Personalised Typographic Coordinate Print is up for ‘Personalised Product of the Year 2011′ and ‘Best Gift for Men 2011′. The Make Awards judging panel includes designer Sebastian Conran, Eden Project founder Tim Smit, and Sunday Times Editor Rachel Bridge. Fingers crossed everyone!
