Chris Rodenhurst or Sketchy Beast is a graphic artists and designer who lives and works in Liverpool. We were lucky enough to have Chris design the Shakespeare In The Streets logo for us but he also takes his artistic work straight to his audience. Working with artists such as Hannah Peel he has appeared in productions such as last year’s Liverpool Sonnet Walks drawing pictures of audiences to accompany other performances. Chris also created the artwork for Hannah’s single ‘Organ Song’. Chris teaches on the BA Graphic Arts course at Liverpool John Moores University and has worked for companies ranging from the BBC to Kellogg’s. Much of Sketchy Beasts’ work can be found on his website including illustrations and graphics of fairytales, a collection of portraits, robots and people.

Shakespeare in the Streets are incredibly grateful to Chris for the fantastic logo he created for us. You can see more of his illustrations and artwork at Sketchybeast.com
