Sketchbook Pages

Hello!! Here is some pages from my old sketch book from my last project. My inspiration was nature and Autumn. so I chose Autumnal colours and based everything around that! my first post was my finial out come, it was a wallpaper piece. I also used Brusho, I love that stuff! Also the photographs in there are my own I took at the local grange. Very short and sweet today folks!!! Enjoy :)

Sunday

Good morning to you all! and what a great day it is already. I am starting the day with some smooth jazz, Scott Hamilton to be correct. Anyway today is going to be a quiet Sunday, no work just doing some art and relaxing. I hope your weekend was as eventful as mine, yesterday i did a dance festival in the morning what then led me on to go to the annual local Rock on the Rocks. Basically music all night in a field, just the way I like to spend my Saturday evenings. good people, good vibes and music....what else could a girl ask for ? Hopefully i will be posting my finish triptych wall art pieces soon, so watch out for them! Have a lovely Sunday people. Stay happy :)

Quick Update

Hey people!! Sorry I haven't been on this weekend, I've been busy with work and art, just a quick update on everything, Bauhaus soon, cannot wait! words cannot comprehend how excited I am, I'm looking forward to being in a different country on my own and been able to do whatever I want and seeing the town, I also want to go travelling on my own one day so I guess this will determinate if I can handle it, be free for two weeks, and also to learn obviously. This month is going to be crazy with getting flights and everything sorted and finishing school for the summer. I hope you guys have a lot planned this summer, if you're in college or sixth form, try and go to a summer school while you're off, it will give you a really good chance before you pick any university to see if you like the environment and if you can handle it! Stay happy people and never forget you can accomplish anything if you put your mind to it :)

What a Crazy Week!

What a crazy week!! I didn't think I would be rushing around this much come last week, but what has to be done to get your work done. Today has been eventful, I have started painting my triptych pieces. I tried a new technique and it worked out very well, I am very happy with the outcome. I did a Monet style painting technique and I absolutely love it. I am hoping to finish them all by Monday...Fingers crossed! I will post some pictures of the finished pieces for you. Hopefully if people like them I will make more and hopefully sell them. If anyone is interested in a unique wall art piece please contact me for further information. I would also like to thank a few special teachers who have helped me very much over the past few weeks. Miss Foster, thank you so much for everything you do for me with my work and everything else in in between, listening to me ramble on day after day! I really appreciate you. Also Mr Bowyer, Now Mr Bowyer is an amazing teacher and has helped me ever sinc

Something New

Hello! Welcome to day two of my blog, just would like to keep you posted on what is going on. Today i started with triptych wall pieces, I am inspired by the art movement Art Nouveau, I love this movement because it is nature based. I am very intrigued in learning new techniques and developing my skills, and drawing in the style of Art Nouveau is something very new to me. Surprisingly I am quite good, well I have been told ha ha! I am mainly basing my triptych wall pieces on nature, mainly flowers and insects. When researching Art Nouveau I found that all the pieces we the same, the same structure and colours, but at the same time every artist has their own interpretations on them. I am really fascinated in the work of William Morris and Denys Montjoie , I find their work very intriguing and beautiful, one of my favorite pieces is shown below, The colours Montijoie uses are very  contrasting and I especially like the colours he uses. I also really admire Morris, he has to be one of my 

My Adventure

My first adventure is going to be Bauhaus University Summer School in August for 2 weeks! I am so excited and scared at the same time. This is going to be the first time I am going to do something alone, but this is going to be an amazing opportunity for me, and I am not letting anything get in my way.  I mainly can not wait to be able to visit the town Weimar. It looks beautiful, I will post some pictures below of the town, I will be updating my Blog everyday and sharing pictures and stories with you all the way so you can see me grow with new techniques. If you're an artist like me, you want to widen your techniques so take any chance like this is amazing, and I recommend it to any young artist out there. I did the whole thing by myself. I researched everything myself, and contacted the university and from that one email I am now going.  I t is lovely to see all the people at my school and my friends and family on how supportive they all are, especially my teachers, they have bee
Here is one of my earlier designs, this was actually for an Autumn range in wallpaper. I love the colours and the Brusho! I am a big lover of Brusho!
