What I do in real life...

So, the reason my posting has been a little bit sporadic over the past couple of weeks is that I'm now back at Uni (I study Fashion Promotion at Uclan in Preston) working my rather round bottom off.

The first little project to get us back in the creative swing of things was to create some posters/adverts in the style of different artists that we admired. So, for research I've been copying my favourite artists' work and then doing my own thing when I've mastered the technique.

I chose Rob Ryan, Krisatomic and Little Doodles to copy the shite out of, I'm rather pleased with how the Little Doodles doodles turned out and decided to show them off a little bit. I am not passing these off as my own AT ALL, just my own little homage to their greatness...

London Fashion Week starts today, exciting! I'm heading down on Sunday so expect coverage from then on...

Little Doodles - delightful illustrations

I recently started following Kate Wilson AKA Littledoodles on twitter and following her lovely blogs... and I'm so very glad I did, they are a source of delight! plus, I have totally fallen in love with her illustrations (she does sell her work, so check out her Etsy shop here). I am a particular fan of her bird themed series of drawings. They feature a lot of things that I love: cakes, chocolate, ice cream, teacups, fashion, and a little bit of humour too. I think that the french fancy and ice cream ones below are my favourite, but I love them all so much it is difficult to choose! Here are a few of her brilliant illustrations for you to enjoy (and fall in love with!)...
