Blue Dress

Here's an image made from ink that I created this morning. I'm pretty pleased with how the dress turned out and how I blended the light blue at the top to the dark blue splats at the bottom but I do think I ruined it a bit with the her arms and hair. I think it's made it look a bit too cartoony rather than abstract which is what I was going for it.

Snail Makeover

I decided to give this snail a makeover yesterday..





..and if anyone from peta stumbles accross this then don't worry, I used watercolour paints and washed it off afterwards.

Crisps that look like things

Here are a couple of crisps that I've found that look like things. And btw I don't just go through packets of crisps looking for ones that look like things, I just always look at my crisps before I eat them..

A rabbit?

An egg with a face?

A penguin?

Pac-Man?

An apple/plum?

Spongebob Crumpits

My mum bought these from Morrisons today. I can't believe these have only just been thought of!

Body Paintings

Last year at college I had a project called Body/Self where I had to create something using that theme. After vising that Body Worlds exhibition by that crazy German guy who plastinates bodies and puts them into weird positions I decided to try and recreate the same kind of effect but on top of the skin rather than under it.

I started off by using my friends hand to test on so that I could get the grasp of how to blend the colours together (watercolours)..

Then I began to work on my own hand, this time trying to fully cover it and make it look as realistic as possible which I've got to admit didn't turn out quite as good as I wanted it to..

I finally decided to experiment on my sisters arm so see if I could paint the muscles on so that when she flexed her own muscles it would define the paint more and I actually think it turned out quite good considering I only had a short amount of time to do it because she had to go somewhere. Also, you may notice that when you click on the second photo to make it bigger you can see little white bits near the top of the painting. This is where it had started to crack as it dried out. I kept trying to paint over the white bits but by the time I could more of the paint had cracked somewhere else so I just gave up on that and finished off.

Old Art

Here's some of my older art from my portfolio..

Me

Here's a drawing I did a couple of weeks ago. It's an image of me made up of the name's of everybody I've ever met (and like, and could fit onto it..)
