Shadow phobia project

One of my favourite projects so far at falmouth...

End of the Road

Robbie and I after shaking William Elliott Whitmore's hand and he even complimented me on my headband. He was definitely one of the highlights of the festival.

one of the many art installations around the festival, this one a little bird hung up by balloons we suspected it was Kai Wong design as he does all the illustrations for end of the road, he's brilliant!

DEER TICK taken by my friend Fran Walker.

this was actually their secret set and it was so awesome, they came on with these celebrity masks on which was hilarious and then towards the end John McCauley went rock and roll and played the guitar with a particular body part!

Alessi's Ark taken by me, she was so awkwardly cool and the way she sings is so interesting with the way she makes different sounds with her mouth especially in her song bird song. She was one of my favourites along with mountain man, the low anthem and basically every band we saw!

This was a printed illustrated tea towel i bought from rough trade shop at EOTR, nearly ready for university now.. and also this lovely illustrated book by Matt Sewell, i love the painted birds and the compositions of them, also the clever characteristics given to each bird comparing them to old professors and young scallywags.

White chocolate & raspberry cheesecake

Now to carefully transport 2 of theese to Robbie's for this evening as i'm making him dinner and these yummy white chic and raspberry cheesecakes. He's had a long week of work so he deserves a nice treat! I'm also going to be making him a melted goats cheese salad with roasted root vegetables from my new Rachel Khoo cooking book! My brother had one as soon as i had finished putting whipped cream on top and scoffed it down so found it a bit sickly so i added the raspberry bits, lemon zest and grind to level out the flavours. I think its the most cooking i've done in a week! Me and my friend sarah made a lovely dinner on thursday, she took some pictures so i'll try and post them on here soon. 

Garden animals say thank you

Finished!

So happy with my joker final result, just put a varnish on it to hopefully protect it from the weather tomorrow. I think he's come out best on this one, the others he wasn't quite right but now he's super cute! Now to ready myself for tomorrow...

I've Been a busy bee..

Quite pleased with these! I made them all today mostly. I made them to raise money for cornwall hospice and i'm going to hopefully sell them where i work (bridge bistro in wadebridge) Its nice to have my own projects and deadlines, its a strange feeling once you finished college after having so much to do, to nothing at all!

Oh i need a new camera, mine is rubbish. 

Roses

This is progression on a little project i've been doing, it started off just as roses painted with acrylic with a palette knife, now it's ventured into the connections of nature. Looking at chemistry diagrams and microscopic images of pollen.

Hello, so at the moment i've just finished and recieved my grade for foundation diploma in art - distinction, yay! (big thanks to my tutors!) so i treated myself to a lovely macbook and decided it was about time i created a blog.  

Heres some images of what i created for the summer show.
