Brief: design a logo for an Art & Design library.
This is a sketch of a Tawny owl - the most common owl in the UK - taken from my sketchbook. I was working on an owl design and decided to try a realistic image for the logo first. I used the same image that I'd previously done in charcoal and tried it again using watercolour pencils. I thought an owl required a softer kind of colouring and so watercolours would be the best medium for this. I used watercolour pencils as I find that I can shade and blend the colours better than with paints.
The feet came out rather bright and I had a bit of trouble getting the wing dark enough but I'm pleased with the rest of it, especially the face. Unfortunately reworking the wing made the paper buckle, even though it's 150gsm cartridge paper.
Right at the end of the day today a few of our pupils asked me to come and photograph some of their textiles coursework.
The quality of the work was really exceptional, and some of the items looked shop ready.
This is a detail on the hem of one of the garments. Nice colours, and I hadn't taken much else today!

Brief: design a logo for an Art & Design library.
This is a sketch of a Tawny owl - the most common owl in the UK - taken from my sketchbook. I was working on an owl design and decided to try a realistic image for the logo first. I chose charcoal as I thought it would add texture to the design but as it's a relatively soft medium, it would give a good suggestion of downy feathers. I'm very pleased with how it came out.
More coursework from the VPW workshop. I think this is with a china ball. I liked this guy. He's a light heavyweight. The wolf is his totem animal. I think my totem animal is a marmot.

Brief: design a film poster for one of the five films showing at the film festival taking place at a local university. I chose the film Control.
Preliminary sketch to work out the final design of the poster. It's taken from a screenshot showing Sam Riley portraying Ian Curtis at the mic. The angel wing was inspired by the street artist, Eelus.
Gouache on cartridge paper; this was my first time using gouache. The outline of the silhoutte was traced from a printout of the screenshot and the angel wing was added on afterwards. All detail in the wing and the shading was all done by freehand. I'm very pleased with how it came out, particularly the texture in the wing.

A bit cynical but these days students ability to concentrate on anything other than a computer game is well documented!

For "Picture This", asked to choose a subject then take photo's and edit them for the type of book genre. For this second love, I took a photo of my mode Naomi, and made the white of her face fill the area, leaving only her eye hair and nose visible.

Well currently I'm learning how to develop 35 mm film, and so this is the beginnings of my write up about it (its not the most exciting experience in the world) but it is interesting. But one of the fun parts about sketch book work is drawing out cool fonts, I have no idea why I find that enjoyable, but there you go. Happy Monday!
Brief: design a film poster for one of the five films showing at the film festival taking place at a local university. I chose the film Control.
Preliminary sketch to work out the final design of the poster. It's taken from a screenshot showing Sam Riley portraying Ian Curtis at the mic.
It's done in charcoal and was my first time ever using that medium. The outline of the image was traced from a printout of the screenshot but all detail and shading was freehand. The line down the right-hand side of the image is because the A4 sheet was too long to go into my supposedly A4 sketchbook so it had to be folded over slightly. Scanned in.
One for my A2 Art&Design Coursework.
For this project I have to include a dissertation-like written essay for my A&D coursework, Given the the theme 'Beginnings' I thought up the project topic of 'Grow.' - looking at the acorn to oak tree concept and how something so small and insignificant can eventually grow to produce a massive body, much more complex than its original form. Im really going to stay away from the digital end for my final peice for the sake of my university application as I think I have that down so ill be working in more traditional media to hopefully bring out some more depth in my portfolio's media spectrum.
So for the photography end of this project (no photog class this year unfortunately :( ) ill be looking at nuts, seeds, beans, roots, shoots/saplings, trees and other fully grown plants. Quite a nice subject type as I do like my still life so it will be interesting to see if I can still draw after the summer break :)
Strobist:
one black studio case/portfolio case as a background
One plant (a thyme shoot I think it was) clamped by the horseshoe mount of my unbrella stand about 2 feet infront of background
natural light from window (90 degrees camera left)
I think I worked this a little too much, roots are very fine so getting the contrast right was tricky.
Guess what is sort of boring? Digital library interoperability! DOI! OAI-PMH! WSDL! Listen, if I wanted a profession full of crazy acronyms ... oh ... wait ... crap.
Salad and an espresso tastes better when you're reading David Foster Wallace.
My two latest pieces of paper manipulations with added stitch for the Open College of The Arts textiles course that I am doing.
Brief: design a film poster for one of the five films showing at the film festival taking place at a local university. I chose the film Control.
This is my final draft of the poster. Created using Photoshop CS4 on Mac, using screenshots from the film. This was my first time using Photoshop, although I've used other graphics software for several years.

For one of my AS Level projects, the title was "Light Graffiti" and I decided to just base this project on the technique alone and put more effort into the final presentation. This was taken on a 15" exposure and I used three LED coloured keyring lights.
It has not been retouched in any way and for my final presentation, I am going to print this out A3 size and then split the image into quite a few separated pieces, mount them on foam board and then progressively raise them further up as they go towards the middle to create a 3D styled piece.
This is a section from my A2 Textiles Coursework book displaying an evaluation piece from a scarf i made and a documentation from my visit to the Brussels Lace and Costume Museum, which I found inspirational in response to my chosen theme of Vintage: 1910-1930s evening wear.
