Some of my recent university work!

Busybusybusy!
I've been given so much work recently, and i'm nearly done! (ish...)

For my drawing unit of my course, the brief was to produce a sketchbook of ideas that could inspire clothing and/or silouettes,
based on a colour of my choice. I chose red :)

I used loads of different mediums; paint, pastel, ink, melted candle wax, tracing paper, thread and spray paint!

Here's a few pages of what I have done so far!
(You could call it experimenting, or you could call it mess...)











Still a lot more to do!
More to come when its finished...

I'm in the paper...

I was recently asked to write a small passage for my local newspaper.
My secondary school had a 4 page spread in the paper, with students writing articles about the school and subjects.
I wrote about the technology department (in which I studied for my Product Design Textiles A Level) and got to show the final garment I had created!

Excitinggg...



Note, the quote from the little boy doesnt have anything to do with my article... :)


Lovely.

Scarf is finished!
Pictures will arrive sooooooon
