Look at some stuff I've done, just realised it's been a long time!

I did some photos and they are pretty.


Roundhay park in the sunshine!

It was a fun day out this is for sure.

I will probably be updating this much more often now as I have removed myself from facebook and given away my Xbox for the duration of my college term to make myself more productive.
It seems to be working, as I am doing much more creative things.  Not necessarily relative to the course, but nonetheless more productive than being sat on facebook all day!

You've probably been led here....

If you're here as a result of what you've seen in Leeds today, then keep checking back.
I'm on a pursuit of happiness in Leeds city centre as part of my final major project at college,
and I was asking for your contributions.
If you took note.... awesome. Thankyou very much :)
I'll be publishing my results here in the next few days!

I find paper most inspiring y'know

This lady, Yulia Brodskaya, is amazing. She uses a technique called quilling to make these images, which is basically curling thin strips of paper into shapes and gluing them down.
She has the most incredible amount of skill I have ever seen.
Her website is here.  It's brilliantly built and her work is just beautiful.






Actually stunning.  I'm thinking I might try to do something like this, but it's most likely I'll fail.  I'll kepp you posted.

Countdown the seconds

I made this typeface, as I have a university interview this week, and want to show off that I can do things.
I already made one similar, but it wasa scan of a hand drawn one, so this one was made much tidier, in a very similar style, to link with my development etc. The brief was 'Urban'. The concept was always that the city may look strong, but it is infact a broken, fragile mess of a place.



In other life news, which I feel I should share on here, I'm currently still wearing the pyjamas I woke up in this morning. This is the first genuinely relaxing day I've had in months, and spending most of it with one of my closest friends scoffing all that bad stuff we're supposed to worry about eating as females, was an awesome addition to it. Fun times!

I found my good final so I deleted the old post of this.

Aha! Pesky hider, I found you! I remember being proud of this now.

Yes, it is actually quite good. Hurrah!
