Fashion Illustration - 2

3 new sketches done in pastel. I’m really enjoying doing these fashion illustrations. I have no experience in how fabric is cut etc, so I doubt these garments are practical, but that is not the point. I am taking my knowledge of life drawing and medical illustrations and trying something new. I will post up some other sketches soon.

Some more photographs taken with my Digital SLR.

Fashion Illustration

In my spare time I have being experimenting with Fashion Illustration. I am finding this very creative and have been attempting different things and experimenting with different media. Pens, markers, ink, charcoal, pastels, oil pastels and water colours are some of the materials I have been using. Theses 2 sketches were created using pastel.
Fashion Illustration is new for me and I am finding it very enjoyable. I never knew it could be so expressive and experimental. Expect a load of more sketches to be posted up here soon.

Photographs – 1

I mentioned earlier about my new camera. It’s a Canon Digital SLR and I’ve been out taking some photographs.
Here is a selection. These were taken on the streets of Edinburgh. I should have some more up in the next few weeks. I will be taking a class on Portrait Photography at the Stills Gallery in Edinburgh in a few weeks time, so I will hopefully have a few interesting shots from that class to post up.

Papergirl Norwich

After having my work accepted for Papergirl Dublin and I also pleased that I’ve also had some work accepted to the Papergirl Norwich event. The idea is the same. The work is exhibited in a gallery and then handed out to the public by volunteers who cycle around the city.

My submission is another 5 photographic prints form my Lomography camera. The images were taken in Berlin Summer 2011.

I have also had my work featured on the Papergirl Norwich website. Here is a link to the post.

Papergirl Dublin

I’ve posted some photographs to Papergirl Dublin for their Papergirl event. The photos will be handed out to the public after they have been exhibited in a gallery.

They have also featured my work on their website.
The photographs are some Lomography photographs I took whilst in Berlin in 2011.

New Camera

I’ve got a new Camera.
Here’s a sampler of what I’ve been up to.
Several Months ago I mentioned a new project that I was starting; well I should be getting started with taking the photographs soon.
