PERFUME BOOK COVER

it's 2:44am and i've just finished this cover. on a saturday night. i literally used the page out of my sketchbook for the cover and scanned in my hair for the back. there's a few tatty bits but this'll do.

ALICE BOOK COVER

so 3 hours later and i've done this. i think martini will be offended by the garish colours and type but this'll have to do.

THE START OF BOOK COVERS

back in november i had a brief which was to read the books 'alice's adventures in wonderland' and 'pefume' and then make a book cover for each of them. after catching severe viral gastroenteritis from wood green kebab centre, i missed a week and a half of uni and therefore working on this brief. i should have really caught up during the christmas break, maybe even the easter one but i'mlazy and stupid so i'm trying to finish it all now in time for my assessments. so these are some initial collage drawings of the mad hatter and queen of hearts. i hate book covers and have no idea where to start...FML.

LOVELY BOOKS

some of my favourite books.

EMMA COOK SHOES

finally! emma cook shoes found and bought on ebay...now i only want the pink pair as well and that's me done. for now.

I CAN BE A FREAK...

these are a few more 'freaks' i've drawn. now need to get them screen printed in less than 3 weeks. poo. i don't really like hairy mary but i'm running out of time!

NYC POSTCARD

we got sent an email at uni to make a postcard image for an exhibition later this year. i made a collage illustration using a photo i took while in new york, as i didn't actually manage to draw anything while i was there (don't tell martini). as per usual i've made two slightly different versions and i can't decide which is better. FML.

VERY LATE CHRISTMAS PROJECT

ages ago when i was off for christmas from uni, i was meant to create a response to martini's brief which was to make something that represents either your favourite or worst christmas present. i didn't do it cos i'm naughty.

so while i've been off for easter i'm trying to catch up and i choose to make a big padded, fabric pencil, as my favourite presents when i was little were always stationary or arty things.

DISLIKES

submission for meow. can't decide which i like best. lewis said the top one. over and out.

NEWQUAY

for my dad's birthday we went on our little annual trip to newquay. i've got such a soft spot for newquay mainly cos i've spent most of my childhood holiday's there. we ate in rick stein's, which was the best food i've ever eaten in my life, ate loadsa fudge, had lie ins and watched effin paranormal activity aswell as twilight. i loved it.

THE QUEEN'S DIAMOND JUBILEE

around november, martin decided to set us all a personal project. he wanted me to design and make a promotional pack for the queen's diamond jubilee in 2012. i did really like the sound of it and had a few ideas, but along with the rest of the class, i left it till last minute and ended up making something rushed and half finished. none the less, i think it's ok.

basically, it's a 3D diamond which opens up to a little pack containing a sash (just like the queen's!!) with a badge inside to put on it, and the whole idea is to collect different badges and brooches to fill the sash. i did want to put some other little stuff in there too, which i will get round to doing at some point. this is it anyway.

CONJOINED TWINS SCREEN PRINT

you can't really see it that well, but this is a screen print of the collage drawing i made of conjoined twins. i used a CMYK process so had to separate the image into four different sections, and then print the colours separately and on top of each other. i've got to do another 3 i think. FML.

NYC

so here are a few pics from NEW YORK. to be honest, i was expecting it to be a lot better than what it was. i was looking forward to something like sex and the city and loads of character, but all it seemed like was tall buildings and busy, straight roads. i'm not saying i didn't enjoy myself, but i definitely feel that london has a lot more to offer and reeks of character. the last photo is by turbs, and the first one by b.
