Update: creative life so far..


Let's see...
Work on my current fashion project has been put on hold for a bit while I focus on my upcoming interview. So I'm busy making my portfolio look pretty :)
I'm actually really enjoying putting my portfolio together, it's so nice to see all my hard work present well and hopefully admired by others.

Once my interview is over its full steam ahead to finish this project and get started on my final major project. I still have notes on it in the back of my mind. But I have more thinking to do I want to be really amazing.
Maybe this weekend while I'm taking a break from working on my portfolio I can think about my final major project.

I can't believe I'm at the final stages of this course! This time last year I just had my interview for Bournville and feeling very nervous about starting such an amazing course for talented people. Obviously at the time I thought I have no talent and didn't deserve a place on the course. Just the other day my fashion tutor jokily asked "why did I let you on this course" and it immediately brought back how nervous I felt every time I thought about going to an Art school doing nothing but Art all day!
But now I look back applying for the Foundation course at School of Art Bournville was the best thing I've done so far in my artistic career :) It's going to be sad to leave...

Do what you love & Love what you do!

Do what you love & Love what you do
This is so important because if you don't have any passion for what you then there is no point at all. Whatever you do is will just be empty and lack personality. Creating work that shows personality is so important for any Artist, Photographer, Designer ect.
Recently my little sister has been getting very creative and imaginative. As I don't always get to play with her, she will start making things from paper, tissue paper and any old scrap she can find. It's so amazing to watch her do this because if she's at this level of creativity now, if she later on decides to do an Art related career I'm going to enjoy watching her grow creatively.
This is something she did today with the paints I bought her and tissue paper:
For a 5 year old to do something like this is just amazing. I'm so proud of her. She said she did her drawing on the tissue paper because 'Mr Maker did it' and I love the delicate effect it made.
