Trip to India

I had an amazing time at Tigerprint studios but am unfortunately not able to share any of the work with you as its under copy write (reality of the real world hey). Since then I went to India for three weeks to work with a charity called Speed Trust, running little art work shops for the kids was one of the best experiences of the year. It's also such a colourful inspiring place to be full of typography and hand painted artwork everywhere. It also made me really appreciate what I have and the how I should be happy and great full for the little things. Will do another blog post of just the school pictures as this is quite an image heavy post.

We Are Laura Internship

 I have been working with We Are Laura graphic design duo who have a lovely little studio in Hackney. We have been designing and making a website for the people of PopUp Festival, made up of collage and paper sculpture, I created the the roughs for the clients and they really liked them! I was so thrilled, this meant I was able to follow through with this project of my own designs and have them live on the website, I also went on to make icons and web buttons.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas folks hope everyone has a lovely holiday x

Many Hands Internship and HELLO Studios

 I have been helping out collage artist Ciara Phelan run the Many Hands shop and learnt so much about what running your own shop takes. Theres a lot of book keeping and spread sheets plus the visual up keeping of products and the online shop takes quite a lot of time. Theres also the social media aspect of keeping your products known and generating new things to say and post. I run a little Etsy shop at the moment which has been quite slow, I can see where I've been going wrong! I have invested in some proper lighting equipment and set up a space at home to photograph products better. I learnt a lot about shooting models and paper sculpture which was invaluable experience. HELLO studios is one of the most beautiful studios I've worked in so far, and so many talented people doing different things its a wonderful place to work and I hope to ever be as lucky to rent a desk space in a place like this.

I have been working on some collages for my portfolio, Many Hands have kindly let me work on an previous editorial brief based on an article which explores the impact of music in film classics. It was a really fun topic to explore and Ioved playing around with sound waves and shapes to create the two images. I decided on a spot colour to really emphasis the importance of sound in contrast with the imagery. 

Internship With Matthew Robins

I had the pleasure of working with a very talented animator/puppet master for a couple of days this week. He does live shows and with live music and I was helping him test the scenes for the ‘Little Match Girl’. I was a wonderful experience and similar to my style of work which was interesting. You can see he work here.
