New Beginnings

Hey guys!
I thought I'd just let you know what I've been up to lately
I've been on Tumblr a lot collecting some inspiration and relaxing after the second year of my FdA course ending!
I'm looking forward to receiving my results and graduation from CCAD!(:
Ecpecially after enduring my last day today, picking everything up and saying goodbye to my tutors and technician, it's a bitter sweet chapter of my life done.

I'm also wanting to start a new project, I often look for inspiration from my surroundings but since I won't be in a workshop during the next few months I would like to start drawing again and maybe developing some ideas from observation. 

I believe the best design has us in mind and our surroundings is something we're in everyday, and although we need function I think making something interesting or giving someone a new outlook always inspires me within design. 

What have you guys been inspired by this week?

CCAD Summer Show (6th-14th June)

Hello, I hope everyone is keeping well!
I have been invigilating the Applied Arts Exhibition in the CCAD Hartlepool summer show recently, so I haven't been updating this blog as much.
I have a few photo's from the opening night and I hope if anyone's in town they will have a peak in!
It does finish this Saturday but there are some amazing artists, designers , photographers, e.t.c!
Next to my work
