Catch up...

Looking through photos on my computer I discovered the photos I took of the small exhibition in Electrik Sheep...which I should have written about aaages ago but I have honestly been rather disorganised : / so here are the pictures:

Love this picture

Highly talented designer and painter Craww's work was displayed in the exhibition space next to the shop. His work is amazing, really inspiring as it contains dark themes but still manages to remain beautiful. The paintings combine slightly distorted female forms with animals and they seem very sombre almost sad, some make me think of mourning just by the positioning of the subject(s). This was a really influential exhibition :D

Total confuddlementationess :S

Negotiated project has come around very quickly and I have too many ideas... right up until we actually got the project brief I was pretty much set on the idea of making a magazine but then I started looking at the online brief competitions and I found an illustration brief for Diesel and I quite like that! But I would love to make my own children's book too... I might end up doing all 3 but I don't know which to choose for this project........

Anyway I will eventually make up my mind I suppose...I have no choice so yes I will!

eljaypea is me :D

Finally coming up with the ideas for my portfolio website and all that jazz :)

I have kept it all quite simple (just like me...kidding) but included my personality a little with my hearts, I do love the heart shape it is the best shape!!! Yes...in the process of choosing portfolio pieces and making them look better!!!

 

Also the time has come for the negotiated project!!! Currently thinking...a lot of ideas to choose from... reeeeeeeeeeeeally want to make a magazine or a children's book! Lots more planning to do!

A Little Bit Obsessed...

Ever since the new Debenhams bit opened in Eldon Square I have become increasingly obsessed with Paperchase...I love everything in that shop!!!!! I had ventured into the smaller one in the Metro Centre but when this stand alone Paperchase opened in Newcastle...I was hooked from the minute I stepped through the door and saw the first piece of sushi with a little happy face!!! Everything in Paperchase makes me gasp and smile and act like a total idiot. I mean tuppaware has never been so necessary for me to own until someone put cute animals on it!

Now it's coming up to Christmas and they have some new things with happy faces :) I am in my element every time I see it!

Anyway...just felt like it needed to be posted how obsessed I am with Paperchase products!!!
NOW YOU KNOW!!!
