I went to Paris with three amazing friends for the first time last week and I loved every second of it. I found it an incredibly inspiring place (the architecture, the carousels, the pastries!) and was constantly sketching during my brief three day visit. Naturally I couldn’t wait to get drawing when I got back and made Paris my fourth summer project.
My second package contains three coffee drawing and little handmade sketchbook.
In central London in midst of a heatwave going swimming seems like the only sensible thing to do. Today my friend Freya and I went swimming in the pond at Hampstead Heath, drew in our sketchbooks and generally enjoyed the sunshine.
In the last month I moved out of my (rather nicely decorated) room in halls of residence.
And into my grandparent's baker street flat for the summer

My summer project set by my second year tutor was to create six bits of work from six different times over the summer. These then needed to be posted to our second year tutor, with the packaging an important part of the project. My first project was to record things about my last weeks at halls. Little things like how I decorated my room, the pens on my desk, the people and met and the old photos my boyfriend gave me. Here are a fews bits of that work.
Over the Christmas holidays my tutors set us a project to draw one hundred interpretations of snow. Well, I made it to 87, which is better that a lot people in the class. Obviously I can't post them all, but here are my favourites.
At the moment we've been having quite a lot of snow here in London. I live in a country park so it's been just glorious.
In other news I am going to Vienna for 5 days on Monday weather permitting. Expect lots of photos and sketchbookness when I return and wish me look for an undelayed flight!
This piece was inspired by a post by the lovely LaidOutInLavender.
I haven't been able to find much time for blogging lately, but here's what I have been doing.
This is a page of thumbnails for a project based around a passage of Jekyl and Hyde.
This was project on black and white and white turning into black. The pages have holes in them and they images change as you turn the pages.
I've been doing lots of drawing out and about in London.
Here's life drawing to to prove I can do it.
Here's a blue whale just because.
So, in the post today I got 2 cds, a big box full of fabric from the lovely Lostie and a big envelope of beautiful paper from the lovely WorkingTitle. Lovely. I am already starting to make things in my sketch books with the paper.
Here's some of the music from my new cds for you to enjoy. :)
I got this book out from the library yesterday and have been thoughly inspired by it.
Here are some of my sketch book pages.
