you know you're poor when you have to make your own sketchbooks rather than buying them.


i think they look pretty damn good though!


also, you can tell deadlines are coming up when my room looks like this...



crap everywhere. i'll tidy it on tuesday... maybe.


deadline: 1200 monday,
time now: 0019 saturday.
work all day tomorrow (today really, as it's now saturday) & sunday.
still got another sketchbook to make & fill up.
then i'll have seven sketchbooks to annotate.
i do believe i'm screwed.
anyway, bed time.
coursework can wait til tomorrow.

deadline stress and coursework procrastination.

deadlines are approaching and sketchbooks are empty. ooooh dear.
am i doing coursework? no, i'm doing a blog. nice one.
to be fair, i have been at college (on my day off!) since 1 o'clock and it's now 4. (although to be even more fair, if i'd done the work on time i wouldn't have to be here on my day off!)
artist research is boring me but i found this and thought it was cool.

some things from my portfolioliolioooo

i've just started to completely re-do my portfolio as i don't like the stuff i did from last year. fashion is coming out, vis. comm. is going in!

 fashion trasparency; dress made out of sellotape and turned upside down
'a day in the life of a pencil'; prints made by dipping a pencil in ink and dropping it onto the paper

sequences; every circle i could find in the print room (cut down to fit more conveniently onto the page...)


fine art, sculture; dice made out of wood with words telling me what to do to my object. phone was eventually destroyed and this was the outcome.


more portfolio stuff will be posted soon (when i actually do it...)


also, sorry for the overload in posts but i've only just started this so there's loads i want to put on here!

the book, foundation exhibition



this is my bit of work in the exhibition
didn't look as amazing as some of the others but i'm still pleased with it!
heard a few people talking about how long it took me to cut all the swear words out and they said it looked 'sick'. pretty good reviews i guess ;D


:)

the book project




i cut all the swear words out of trainspotting. for anyone that has read it/seen the film, you will know that there are a lot of swear words! it took me about three days. my mum didn't approve because "it's all rude words!"


the book, foundation exhibition


poster advertising the book exhibition at college, designed by me.
(exhibition was good times. photos of my work will be posted later.)
