Too much colour..

Another roll of paper, another set of drawings, this time i decided to make a background by adding paint and collage. I used magazines and objects around the house to draw from. I think I went a bit mad with the colour.

Night in...

This is the result of a night in with lots of paints, pens, magazines and a big roll of paper. Me and my fellow illustrating friend Kieron Sheehy spent the night drawing 'for fun'. These are continuous line drawings whilst not looking, then I just added paint and some colour.

Lead Balloon...

...Today was the deadline for my Polaroid campaign project, and it didn't go down well. I was very disappointed with what i came up with. I think i rushed the posters, which is probably because i decided on the topic about 3 weeks in.

New project brief; Limited edition illustrated book. I'm excited about this one.

Looking back..

Early bird..

Getting up early for uni is always something i find difficult, so I surprised my self yesterday when i got up at 7.30 on a non-uni day. I decided to make use of my time and went to the 'tat' market in town.

I took a few polaroids for my project and found myself a bargain, 8 cassettes for £1. Then I spent the rest of the morning life drawing, which was quite a disaster as i am terrible at it.Something that wasn't quite so terrible were the cassettes i've drawn, i had a lot of fun doing them and i'm really pleased with how they've turned out.

Popped to the Lowry..

Today i took part in a paper engineering workshop at the Lowry. There is an exhibition there at the moment called 'Pop-up- Around the World'. We spent the afternoon making our very own pop-ups, this is what i came up with;

What a coincidence..

I recently borrowed a book from the university library on found Polaroids. I was amazed that so many snap shots had been lost, thrown away or forgotten about, and couldn't imagine ever coming across a disowned Polaroid myself.


So imagine my surprise when i stumbled upon this ghostly picture. Kayleigh's very own 'found' Polaroid book. Chapter one. Done!
