first blog of the new year

so ive been spending most of january doodling away in my sketchbook. Also purchased some new screen printing equipment so have been drawing images ready to print. Here’s one, not sure what to call it yet.... Apologies for the crappy quality of my mobile phone camera...

festive hellos

So its been a while since i’ve put up some new work. After finishing uni with a 2.1!!!! score!!!! i have been sucked into the perils of retail, becoming a robot. But,,, i plan for 2011 to be very productive, so keep your eyes peeled. and merry christmas x

Showcase

So with just under 2 weeks til my final deadline at uni, i am almost complete with project number 2. I have finalised 4 of the 6 postcards i am producing images for. These are all screenprinted at home with help from my friend duncan. The two other images weren't impressing my tutor, so back to the drawing board. but i am very happy with these 4. project 3, self promotion, getting there, have format sorted, just need to find a suitable style for my illustrations. All will get finished!...........i hope.

prograstination (progress and procrastination)

Been busy at the work again today, I really am getting sick of being at a computer, but I have managed to pull through and experiment a little more with my spreads. I also made a small little book of them, probably not wise considering time restraints and the fact they're not quite there yet, but hey it was more fun that clicking on my mouse. I've managed to improve a spread loads and i am much more happier about it. So now its time to go kick my boyfriends ass at some B-ball. Peace out x

eyes glued to the screen

So I've had my eyes glued to the computer for the past 2 days, and im starting to get itchy feet. However I have continued to make progress on my book, and have printed out a mockup to see where i'm at. I got alot more to do until im 100% happy with it. Lots of changes. Anyways heres a few of my favourite spreads and also a photo of my actual prints.

Progress

I've been a busy bee and have been working away at my final major project. I scanned all of my prints in and have been messing around a little with them on photoshop. I have been mixing original prints with inverted ones to create negative areas within the images. I still need to add the green in, i hope this will add more to their overall look.
