• Worry Less

• Be Positive

• Take More Photos (especially with my new Lomo'Instant)

• Work Quicker

• Don't Be Afraid of Being Different (in general and with my illustrations)

• Try New Things

• Go to New Places 

• Listen To More Music

• Be More Confident

• Read More

• Sell More Of Things I Make And My Illustrations

• Improve My Embroidery Skills

• Get Organised 

• Be More Decisive 

• Try Out New Hair Styles (especially a bee hive) and Make-up Looks

• Get Brown Hair and a Curtain Fringe
  
• Wear What The Hell I Want

  What are your New Years Resolutions?

Where Have I Been?

Once again I've been gone for quite a while due to University deadlines, but, I'm back home for Christmas so I can blog to my hearts content! If you didn't know I'm studying illustration at university, I've just completed two projects; A self promotion project (creating a website, business cards and an personal promotional item) and I also made five Artist's books. Mine was named 'Big Hair', as the theme was iconic hair from the big screen. 

Here's some of the work I've done recently:

 I created this piece of embroidery to use as my logo for the self promotion project

                               
                                 

I also made badges with my work on as part of my self promotion project.

I drew the lovely What Olivia Did in my spare time.

As you may be able to tell by my work, I love the Sixties!

When I head back to University in January I will be working on a Picture Book (a book for ages 2 - 6), which I will be illustrating AND writing.

I'm definitely looking forward to trying to make my own Picture Book.
