MORE SHOES...AGAIN...





Two new pairs of shoes...oh no. First ones are Jeffrey Campbell Foxy Platforms in Cheetah, which i got for £30(!!!!!!!!) in the Office sale, how lucky is that! They're a size too big but i can get around that for 30 bar. And the second ones are Topshop Libby, really comfy and i can't believe they're not sold out yet - look at em.

I handed in a lot of work for my assessment today so will be uploading some stuff Friday or at the weekend when i get it back...

ACCESSORY POSTER NO.3: HATS



This is my final poster for the accessories at Selfridges brief. After speaking with my Tutor she suggested i change the block type (NEW HATS/SHOES/BAGS) to match the colour i'd highlighted to get full use of it, which made sense. All that's left to do now with this is print them and see how they come out.

ACCESSORY POSTER NO.2: BAGS




This is my poster no.2 for bags at Selfridges! I don't really like it as much as the shoes one and i think there still might need to be a few changes (and i don't know whether to go for the pink or purple AGAIN) but i'm happy with it so far. Gloves now to follow...i've just decided to go for purple and type on the left.

ACCESSORY POSTER NO.1: SHOES



So this is my poster for shoes at Selfridges. My brief was to only use three colours (not including black and white) so i've chosen yellow, pink and a skin colour. Originally i wanted to include three different tones of skin colour but realised that wouldn't fit the brief, so i've chosen a bright colour to represent that. Really effin hard to only use three colours and i still can't decide whether or not i like the blue better than the pink...

ACCESSORY POSTER DRAWINGS: SHOES

Emma Cook for Topshop
River Island - Navy Spike
Topshop - Wisteria
Ashish for Topshop
Jeffrey Campbell - Lita

Jeffrey Campbell - Foxy Platform

These are my drawings which will be somehow displayed on an A2 poster. I'm only allowed to use three colours in the whole image which is why i've shown the outlines as they'll most likely be what's on the finished poster. Originally drawn with a 0.1 fineliner. Gloves and hats to come...

THE BOOK THIEF BOOK JACKET


This is my final cover for The Book Thief. I decided to use my original drawings instead of the etchings as i didn't want them to go to waste. More work coming soon if icontinue to be a good girl...

BOOK THIEF DRAWINGS: 4-7/7




These are the final drawings made for the Book Thief which are currently being turned into etchings. I definitely prefer the first few i drew but i'm hoping they'll look better as a printed set when i add slightly more lines and detail to them. So that's sort of one project done - three to go!

BOOK THIEF DRAWINGS 2&3/7




Here are 2 more finished drawings to add to the other. I was meant to have finished these sooner but having glandular fever does set you back :( so now i have a remaining 4 roughs to get finished and to get ETCHED AND PRINTED - hopefully by the end of next week. Also the bottom drawing of Papa and Liesel looking out of the window at a Warner's ghost on the roof tops hasn't scanned in too well, but i'll replace that soon.

BADGES FOR THE CHRISTMAS SHOP





Here are a set of 8 badges i've made for my Christmas shop at Uni, which will go on sale from next Monday. I've got another set that i'd still like to make which are also animal related! The badges are made from shrinkle paper and have a brooch back. Hopefully they'll raise some cashish for our degree show next year. Boom.

HOPEFUL KINGSGATE COLLAGE






Here is my contribution to the Kingsgate Gallery Exhibition. We went drawing up Edgware Road and i found this little row of houses just round the corner. I've used paper for the colour, a black 0.1 fine liner and a white gel pen. I hope it gets picked, although i might add colour to the third house cos something doesn't look right...

MORE SHOES...





So the reason i have no money might have something to do with spending way too much money on shoes. The top ones are Jeffrey Campbell Lita's and they're honestly one of the comfiest pairs of shoes i have and the bottom ones are Topshop Wisteria's that i got in the sale for £36! Not bad.

ANTS IN MY DAD'S MOUTH


My current project at uni is to make three book jackets and a slip case. Havn't finished them yet but will post the finals tomorrow. In the mean time, this is a drawing for one of the covers and it's my Dad's mouth.
