The Nutcracker Sets

Here is the programme from the Nuts and Crackers Performance,..spot me out!?

The Nutcracker Sets

Yesterday my sets went through two performances and it was amazing! here are some pictures,... for some of it I was sat in the rafters taking some pictures, beautiful place to sit.

Todays 2 Screen Prints!

I really enjoyed today's print session and could definitely see myself using this technique again because once drawn and copied on to the screen it was a very quick process if you wanted to produce a lot of the same thing. I especially love the speckle bits on my prints, really adds the hand printed effect to it which it what I like, I always think; if you wanted straight clean lines then print it from a computer!!

Animations

Heres just the drawing animation without the background image,...

This is an animation that I had created for my final A level piece, loaded up for a possible idea for Vicky, its created using simple sketches.

The Super Group

Some post-it notes from our presentation today in contextual studies,..we wanted to be interactive and I think that it was quite an effective medium of presenting and we all enjoyed doing it and we hope that the audience felt the same!

Ghost of a bird

These are b-e-au-tiful, by Keith Newstead, spotted at the Ghosts of gone birds exhibition in London

The Nutcracker Sets

I found an advert for the show which I'm doing the sets for, in The Advertiser. Also when I was looking I saw an advert for advertising in the Advertiser and a number provided. This would be a great opportunity to advertise and promote myself!

inspiration always come when I'm sat on the bus!

I found this picture of a while ago when I had this idea for the first ghost piece on the bus, it was on a wet day and it was all steamed up on the inside which was quite ghostly because you could kind of see things outside but they were a bit mis-shaped! So I decided to draw into the steam and it had a beautiful delicate look to it which I really wanted to create and had struggled with before!

Haunted Houses

This is my end result for the 'Haunted Houses' session with Phil last week, it took a while to get into the session, as we had started with collage which I don't really enjoy. But after giving it a good go, i started to like the outcomes that I was producing. I was washing the photos in the sink with ink then scrubbing bit off when I saw how beautiful the ink looked when it was washed down the drain and how the photo looked on top of it. So i decided that I would do a series of 3 hand edited photographs then photograph them in the sink, a place of taking dirty objects and washing them clean. I love the final outcomes that I was producing, really exciting piece of work!
