Band art inspiration of the minute.




Brilliant imagery from Bring me the Horizon and Everytime I Die album art work, the metal scene is full of great illustratos at the moment, I like the use of form and also the vibrant colours that have been used, they give a DIY aestheic to each piece.
I'd love my work to look like this!

Inspiration...

Feeling very inspired at the minute! working on a few digital pieces that should be on here soon, which concentrate on the relation of living space and human interaction. Still trying to download Adobe illustrator and indesign which is becoming a right pain... and also looking for work experience! I lan to do a piece involving pegs tomorrow which should be very interesting!

Frosty Jacks.

Well I'm sat in my house absolutely freezing, if only heating was cheap! I've been working on several canvasses today that stem from photographs that I took of my boyfriend a few weeks ago. I've gone for a DIY aesthetic, as I hate painting that is too bourgeoise! Hopefully I'll get some photos up when I manage to find some batteries for my camera...
Speaking of cameras, after three Youtube videos I finally managed to load the film into my Diana Mini, which will definitely be seen snapping on the streets of London next weekend. I've managed to also fix my lightbulb so all in all today has been a good one.
Below are some digital pieces that I did last year, this time I'm having to use more complex programs for my work so I'll miss doing this sort of photo-collage stuff !




These pieces focussed on traditional family roles and how such roles have been reversed or dramatically altered by popular culture, the mass media, and other socio-cultural factors.

Ooo babeh. Embryo.

Needs to find work experience. Needs to do more studio work. Needs to change the bloody lightbulb in my room!
We have got an open studios event coming up, I'm thinking of submitting my Embryo series of a work, photographs of a washing machine on spin- cycle that represent the formation, fluidity and destruction of human beings and human interaction.









In my exhibition I'll frame each of these and arrange them together, it will hopefully make the viewer feel a bit seasick!

Bit of an error with the photo uploader!

At the mo...

I can't help but keep going back to my visit to Leeds City Art Gallery earlier on in the year, when I witnessed a large collection of Rachael Goodyear's work that was intimately gathered on the walls. Her work is so inspiring, on one hand due to the aspects of photo-realism that she employs, and also the interplay of form, connotation and concept. Here is a selection of my favourite pieces:

Living Space







Series of photographs that are linked to my social space project, which examines the indivdual interactions of the solitary human being within space. I have made a few drawings that are linked to these that will be uploaded shortly!
