I haven't posted anything on here in a while, I've been quite busy with work and making a facebook page

I'm going to start making things really soon and posting them on there.

My brother did the graphics for my page which are amazing and I'm very happy with.

Recently I've been knitting, drawing, doing a bit of photography and just enjoying my creative freedom from university getting ready for my second year.

Here's a painting I did of Taylor Swift using pallette knifes and acrylic paint on canvas

Here I embroided a design I drawn from my head and embelished

I've been out enjoying the English weather while we have it, I didn't get to relax until yesterday because I had work at the weekend but I'm planning on taking advantage of my week days(:

From Hand To Heart.

So far this project has been quite challenging, from taking something that's in my head and making it visual, forgetting what looks right and what looks pretty and just going along with my subconscious mind has been interesting to dip into. Down below are a few of the samples I've created this week, after Easter break(2 weeks) I will have 4 weeks to complete this project and a final piece.

In the holidays I'm going to start sketching ideas, collaging and being ready to get into the studios and make something amazing(: Talking with my tutors we came up with the concept of contrasting something real along side my work that's surreal and different.
