My Dust Cover






During the module 'Me, myself and I,' we had to draw, sketch and paint
things about ourselves in an old book, in addition to this, we then made a dust cover which associates and reflects one page of that book.
I chose to do something similar to that of the secret garden, but in a more fantasy/imaginative way.

My Owls



This is a part of my development for the next print workshop
(flock and foil)
the design had to be a significant object from the house you live in.
I started playing with designs using my keys & key-ring as the main focus hence the owls!
The design also had to be very bold as the style of printing would work better that way.

I just finished this image in Photoshop, originally I did a pencil drawing, I then scanned it in and using various tools coloured it in, it has taken me quite a while though even using a graphics tablet.

My Letraset People!



As a part of the Me, Myself and I brief, we were all given tasks to complete,
this included the use of Letraset (transfer letter sheets) in order to create people.
The people represent the first week of university and university life,
this is what I came up with.

Photoshop, Photograms and Illustration





This piece of artwork was created by first making a pencil sketch of the girl, I then scanned it in and uploaded it in Photoshop, also opening a photogram file and combining the two. I finally edited the various colours/layers/filters and Black/White modes, such variations which has created these dramatic mixed media pictures.

My Photography



This photography work shows my various abilities and skills such as: using a digital camera, making and producing photograms and using Photoshop. The idea behind this was Portraits and Illustration, I combined the two to create a mystical, fantasy style scene which told a story.
Usually I don't like playing around with photos but I wanted to try something new. Using Photoshop I played around with the colours of the photogram, then added several layers of the digital photo to pin-point the girl creating a sense of ethereal movement.  (The first photo above) The photo's I took also helped the model as she made the dress. The photo to me recreates a curious forest ent with a dark story behind her.
