♥ MY WORK & IMAGES FEATURED ON NASTY GAL BLOG ♥

It's a good job I had time to kill to look through most of NASTY GAL's blog, as I came across two of my images featured among their posts. They're sadly not credited but it was a nice feeling to see them on there :)

FLICKR UPDATE

I've finally gotten around to paying for another year's use of flickr's pro account and have therefore uploaded some nice pictures i've taken with my iPhone - mainly of my room or dinner's i've made...and the dog.

MY WEBSITE HAS GONE LIVE!

I've finally gotten around to setting my websites URL, www.gemmatravis.co.uk is now live! I have a few more ideas and work to add to it but it's getting there...so make sure you have a look.

✿HELLO✿

I don't know where to begin! I've had a very busy month...

• So firstly I was very lucky to exhibit work at D&AD New Blood AND New Designers, to which I received some great feedback and opportunities from.
• I graduated with a 2:1 in BA Hons Illustration, which I am completely over the moon about.
• I've been working on and setting up my own website which will be finished and going online hopefully this week - I've uploaded a little sneak preview.
• And I am now part of a collective which I will go into detail about in another post, when I have a chance to upload some work...

It feels weird knowing that I wont be going back to Uni this year, it's sort of just hit me and sunk in.

✈MORE FMP IMAGES✈

Now that my degree is all finished I can post and appreciate some of my collages without wanting to kill myself...Here are a few images on their own, click to make bigger.

♥MY DEGREE SHOW!♥

This week I have been so busy at the Truman Brewery in Brick Lane, London, with my Degree Show. Here's a photo of my space which I'm really pleased with and proud of. The exhibition runs until Monday 6th June, featuring a lots of really talented Illustrators, Graphic Designers, Photographers and so much more, so if you're around in the London area go and have a look because the work is UNREAL.

✄ SELFRIDGES POSTERS - REVISTED ✄

These are my new and improved Selfridges posters. After looking at my old ones with my Tutor (and her ripping them to shreds!) she asked me to apply my collage style of working to them instead of using a digital approach. So these are two different layouts for each...

☞ MORE FMP IMAGES... ☜

These are some images in response to another of my sister's poems. With this poem, my sister chose clippings and headlines from a newspaper to make a poem reflecting a sort of binge culture British family...These will eventually be placed among text for the final view of the poem.

☞ FMP IMAGES ☜

Here are some images i managed to scan in from a poem i am illustrating, written by my sister. The poem is all about stupid things George Bush has said in his speeches. The drawings are made from different textures of paper and drawn on top with pencil...more to post soon.

✄ LAST MCMILLAN SPREADS ✄

Here are the last few spreads for my Mcmillan project. I will be uploading some work from my FMP very soon...

☞ MORE MCMILLAN SPREADS ☜

Here are some more rough pages for my Mcmillan book entry. Only 5 more to be finished and scanned, ready for the send off date which is around the first week of May...I hope they like it. Click on an image to see it larger.

✿ CAT HILL CAT

In a few months my uni campus 'Cat Hill' will be crushed to the ground :( so in memory of my 3 years there i decided to draw Mr Cat Hill who lived at my uni in hope that it will be selected for a book which will published about the memories of the campus. Bye cat! Bye uni!
