Final Book.

During my last unit of year one illustration, I have been busy researching into tea and tea wares ready to create a 12 double page spread book. For this book I used free machine embroidery, etchings and mixed media. These are some scans, page by page and in order of the finished piece.

Portfolio Contents Page.

I've just made myself a quick, A3 piece to go inside the front cover sleeve of my portfolio. Rather than sticking to a general plain A3 piece of paper with text, I thought I would add some detail just to make my portfolio me attractive. I added part of an illustration from the inside of the portfolio and repeated it underneath the text.

Final major project.

Today I have been gathering ideas for my final major project at college (the last project I will do doing for this course!), here are some of the things I've done today.

Words.

I've always wanted to keep a diary, ever since I was young, but I've always been terrible at writing well. I recently realised that my sketchbook is sort of like my diary, I use a lot of quotes which relate to my daily life and so on. Here are some words/feelings from recent affairs in my life.
