James Huyton's Resolutions illustrations are beautiful but guilt-ridden
Can you even REMEMBER your New Year’s Resolutions? No, me neither. Something about the gym maybe? Nope it’s gone. Anyway London-based designer James Huyton has produced this really lovely set of Resolutions illustrations, based on the letters of the alphabet. It’s the kind of idea that could be excruciating in the wrong hands but James’ illustrations are utterly charming and he’s eschewed the clunkily obvious to create a fine-looking Rorschach test in which we can see the ghosts of our own abandoned January promises. Lovely!
