‘My Boarders and Boundaries’. Photo weaves, appliqué road, registry text and estate screen prints. Collage fabric background over felt backing with chain embroidery grid and repeat running stitch to highlight areas.

My first screen for my ‘Boarders and Boundaries’ project. Using the plans of my estate and it’s line imagery, to transfer onto my textiles wall hanging. First print on paper, ready to try out more on a range of materials. Interesting colour outcome with the screen block seeping through.

Our Clark’s shoe design brief! I chose the trigenic trainer as my design template, modern architecture for imagery inspiration and neutral cool tones for the colour palette. With only a two week time frame to complete both mood boards including the final outcome, research and designing began immediately. Being sort listed into the top 20 and presenting my idea to some of the Clark’s designers, to be within a chance to win a work experience week. Really enjoyable short project!

All seven components completed for the ‘Art meets Nature’ brief. Zoanthids, cabbage coral and sea fans brought to life using paper origami, pom-poms and plastic in cool tone blues and vibrant pinks. All six outer canvases slightly bleached at the corners, colourful coral fading into stark white shapes. So pleased with the final outcomes, all coming together to form a creative meaningful piece.

Final acrylic pour experiment! Managed to achieve the cell like imagery in the end, after many goes. Colours and shapes inspired by the birds eye view of the Great Barrier Reef. Just one piece of my final wall piece of my take on the coral reef ecosystem.

First brief of the second year, ‘Art meets Nature’. Construction of my large canvas,later to become the centre piece of my project. A beneficial and fun technique to learn!

The final outcome of our first year costume brief. Native American style involving model making, ceramics, textile and sculpture. Plastic feather headpiece as the focal point bringing drama to the simplist patterns within the outfit. Successful photo shoot capturing every angle showcasing each element.

First week back and the start of the second year. The cardboard catwalk! Our fire breathing dragon with long draping tail, scales for the body and elegant wings. A dramatic costume and great performance.

Animal marionette puppet creation! Doweling body and metal hook joints with recycled dolls clothes for the jeans and raglan top. All controlled by cotton cord and cross bar frame. Soon to be featured in my musical animation!

Flight brief final outcome. Coke can and fabric wing biplane. Inspired by the World War One fighter planes creating piece showing juxtaposition between delicacy and strength. Really pleased with this time consuming piece.

Costume brief- face casting in sculpture to create our Native American inspired mask. Mod rock and plaster to capture face shape and detail, vacuum forming mould for initial plastic mask. Scrim was used to create a textural surface with shellac/varnish colouring and acrylic tribal paint. Effective final outcome.

Glastonbury Abbey photography for Gardens and Gothic Brief. Theme of through the arches, contrast of nature and architecture. Really pleased with these final outcomes due to the similar colour range, detail and effective composition .

Glastonbury Abbey Etchings and Mono prints. Focused on the interlinking arches of the Abbey ruins, showing the fine details and age through watercolour, coloured card and background imagery.

Crushed coke can observation drawing in HB pencil with colouring pencil segment for contrast brief.

Printmaking outcome for contrast brief. Colourful lino print dandelions, one on blue card the other on white. Used colouring pencils to enhance the flowers shape and detail.

My final outcomes from the contrast brief. Photos taken at Combe Hill Woods

Acrylic and gouache painting of my abstraction image. Enjoy working with paints due to the bold colour pay off, producing a contrasting and detailed outcome.
