Welcome, Sunshine!

What lovely weather we have been having lately! And how very inspiring it is too!

Over the past week i have been enjoying the sunshine immensely, and have been soaking up all the sun and all its glory around the lovely Sussex! 

All this beauty around me has given me the urge to paint again, and to snap up lots of pictures everywhere i go!

Here are a few moments that i couldnt pass by:

I hope you too, are enjoying the summer!

My First Competition!

 A few weeks ago i entered my first ever competition! HOW EXCITING!
And as the entry close date is getting closer i am getting incredibly itchy feet! I simply can not wait to see who the shortlist is! Fingers crossed!

I entered a tigerprint competition, as since working on the hallmark project i have been addicted to paper and digital design and couldn't wait to get my hands on competition brief!

Tigerprint competitions are great, as they always have one going and they are always fresh and exciting for new designers! They are also really straightforward to enter work in to, which takes away that extra faff and stress!

Here are the designs i entered:

Wish me luck!!!

A very sneaky preview!

Over the past few weeks I have been hard at work on my current project at uni. Our last module is an individual project, so naturally I have based mine around flowers! I have gone with the name "all things bright and beautiful" as I want to create a collection that is simply lovely and beautiful. I think flowers are quite special, and mean something different to everyone. They make me smile just because they are lovely, and I love to think that I could do the same for others through my work.

I am printing a collection of scarves, that I will be taking with me to New York, for the brilliant trade show; Surtex! And I cannot wait !

I am absolutely loving transferring my painting on to fabric! And here is a cheeky preview of some of the work I am having printed on to fabric!

I hope you like them!
