Architecture project.

At the beginning of this project we went to London to look at and photograph the modern architecture mostly in the financial district, we then took our pictures and turned them into illustrations and prints, which led up to making our 2 final pieces.

Monoprint of college architecture

Gold card plate and print of Westminster tube station.

Mixed media collage

Fashion project.

For this project we got given a garment to make and a recyclable item to make it out of. Mine were a skirt and a spoon.

Tonal drawing

5 minute life drawings

So, neither of those are fashion illustration, or at all fashion related, but my fashion illustrations weren't the best and i'd rather try some more before anyone saw them. :)

Tools project.

Yesterday I took pictures of some of my favourite pieces of my work, mostly from college.
Here they are...

These pieces are from the 2nd project of my 2 year BTEC Art & Design course.

monoprinting

collages and collage on acetate

food dye and bleach paintings

Portraits.

I really like Richard Avedon's portraits and could maybe use these to paint, draw etc...

Seems I cant draw storyboards...

How many times can you rub things out on the same page before the page just wears away...?










Alot.

Introducing Emma :)

This is also part of my coursework from the project 'An Object Worth Desiring', here my beautiful friend/model Emma is wearing my final garment inspired by upcycling and cutlery.

One of my favs :)

Another favourite.

Oh, and another fav.

One project over, another to start.

So I've just finished the fashion project 'An Object Worth Desiring' for college and thought I should upload some  of my work (I will upload some more once my book has been marked and I have it back to scan images), so here it is...

My finished garment.

To make my garment I first made the structure out of plastic knives to go around the waistband, I intersected them and joined them with a hot glue gun. After this I printed out cheap looking diner menus and cut out cutlery shapes from them, I also used 2 of the whole menus with the cutlery cut out to produce an inverse effect. I then photocopied these onto heat transfer paper and ironed this onto the skirt. After this I burnt and melted the plastic forks and spoons and stitched them onto the skirt, completing my garment.
