Ok, so I've not written or posted anything for AGES, but honestly it's because my work has eaten me whole and isn't going to spit me out until Thursday next week, (the 16th), when my exhibition is! I've gone for a minimalisitic  look for my show. White walls, white 4 by 4cm cubes hung on fishing wire so they look like they're hovering, but because my hand made cubes are not "perfect" its bugging me, but the teachers like it and my fellow foundationers like it, so, so far so good! I've been starting my days by eating actual breakfast, something soon to be rid of when I move to uni, purely because I'm not going to be able to afford it, and rounding my days off with an episode of Family Guy. I'm so excited to move out and be on my own, the girls who're on my course at Huddersfield are lovely, from what I can tell from talking to them anyway! I'm super excited to find out who I'm living with and what the ratio of boys to girls is :/
I'll take pictures of each page of my sketchbook so you can see my progression.
TA TAR LOVLIES!

These are ideas for my business card, which was a brief set by Emma in Graphics.




  These designs seemed quite suited, one a typical pose (above) and the other drawn with lines (below). Both inculde eyes as I am a visual artist. Visual 

Final Design
Originally this was made with coffee, I published it earlier, but I scanned it in made it cleaner on Photoshop by erasing the background and any dirt that has managed to ingrain itself on the paper. I liked the fact it includes lines and I love the composition of it. On the back is plain text, simple and clean withmy name "visual artist", and contact details, but I won't post that because I'm not really a big fan of strange people being able to save my phone number etc.

 These are for my brief with Shaun, to cut a long story short we basically had to create our own brief in a sense, mine started off as "visual personalities" and my idea was to do portraits of people I know, both head and shoulder shots, one would be in my simplisitic graphic style where my friends would look nude and the other would be made more abstract with lines and would be clothed and do their hair, and possibly make-up, but the aim was to be "made up", I never got round to the abstracted ones as my attention turned elsewhere and my project moved on, heading more down the line route, surprise surprise!, but below are my graphic style portraits I did do!
