Patterned Classy Creatures

I have just realised that I never actually posted this- I just wrote it and saved it as a draft- these designs went along with my final major study stuff from the Summer...

Here are my classy creatures designs with pattern fills, these were part of my experimentation for my final major study but didn't make it on to any of the illustrated products as I thought that they would look more at home in a children's book- I might have a go at children's book illustration next year and see what happens!

Hand Made Seagull Print Concertina Sketchbooks

I made some handmade concertina sketchbooks using the seagull pattern that I created to cover them. The concertina pages are made from 190gms cartridge paper with hand covered mount board ends and are finished off with a red ribbon to tie them up with.

Summer Show 2012

Here are some photographs as promised of our FD summer show 2012. Sorry that the photos aren't fantastic- I found it really hard to photograph them as they are in glass frames which reflect everything!
