UCAS POOCAS

its that time of year when we need to write those 4000 characters which will determine the next 3/4years of our lifes; AAAAAARGH! ive followed my usual ethics to deadlines and left it to the last minute; ow how i wish my attitudes differed in such cases.

BLUNDER PLUNDER

my first 9 weeks at art school has flown by, ive now specialised in fine art so will be back in my home comforts for the rest of the year :) ive enjoyed testing out the other specialisms during the rotations- design and fashion but glad to be doing what i enjoy the most.

the theme of the design rotation was 7, not the most riveting or enthralling theme. i found it difficult to come up with something interesting to base my work on but eventually settled for the literal interpretation and stuck with the number 7. this was the ending result...


i LOVE the outcome.there are 7 decorative hangings- my tedious link!there were three sections in the design rotation, 3D, graphics and photography. the 3D aspect is obvious, i photographed the dream catcher and put some instagram filters on as my photography aspect (ha) and made up some random organic interior design company which would be selling the dream catcher, just to please my graphics tutor. 


i also had to create a concept board, possibly the most fun thing involving words. james and i made it into a study sesh.

ps james is back in abu dhabi d/boooooo again :(


LONG TIME

been out and about recently machester, hull, london- to the v&a and tate modern, the v&a was beautiful.. since james' generosity purchased me an iphone all other forms of of technology have been none existent. my creativity has flourished recently, creating small none time consuming studies.


3 minute ink,water colour sketch of my tutor using my opposite hand- right hand although stated left, wups. 


tits fashion illustration based on Cecily Browns work. 


3D sculpture displaying tensegrity. all materials in the workshop had been used up so i decided to be resourceful and go twig picking. this represents the yoga pose king dance pose.


my fashion ration work was based on Cecily Brown; i had to collect a series of photocopies, fitting my theme, to experiment with emulation printing, this was the result...


make shift fancy dress for a halloween gig Valys played 


james' fancy dress started as slender man, by the end of the night a classic representation of a stella artois drinker


i made myself a head wreath to be worn as part of a sugar skull get up but never got to wear it :(


got some high waisted jeans from hull, my first pair of jeans since i was about 13; i've missed the denim!
