Cheshunt Park 'Festival of Fireworks'














On Sunday me and my friends went to Cheshunt Park fireworks. I've been going now near enough every year and i love it. Used to be more fun when we were younger and used to sneak in though.

head gear


I bought this piece of head gear from Topshop a while ago and it was in the SALE. I havn't worn it out yet, mainly because im scared that people like 'Phil Hughes' will steal it and ruin it. Phil LOVES an accessory. I might wear it out tomorrow night for halloween.

Purple Badges






Ok, so if you havn't already guessed i've been busy with uni work. First project that kicked us off was 'Purple". My tutor each gave us a colour and we had to research into it and produce a final that represented the importance and magic of the colour. I was a bit pissed at having purple, mainly because everyone else had really interesting colours that i've never heard of and sounded so nice. But anyways, i found out that purple represented wealth and royalty as well as being chosen for the 'Purple Heart' medal, which is awarded to american soldiers who are wounded or killed fighting for America. Sooooo i decided to make royal-like badges. I did sew on some little things that i've collected, but took them off because i'm going to attach nice little photos onto them instead.

Project no.5 - Barca Book












This page i used as a 'drunk page' and wanted my friends, who baring in mind, are all art students to draw something on it and i got a scribbled out moo face, an american football and a salami breath man. I like the salami breath one though.



So here is my Barca Book. I used an old diary that i bought from a booty as a sketchbook because i thought it would be a nice little thing to use and i've been waiting for a good reason to use it. I tried to fill it with bits and bobs as well as drawings so it's a bit packed out, but i'm going to use it for whenever i have my next holiday so it'll be even thicker. I had a really good time but as you can see by the weird luggage tags on the last page, my effin case got left in Barcelona. I'm not gona lie, i cried like a baby. I had about a third of my proudest 'vintage' collected clothes and stuff in there but THANK CHRIST it's back by my side. The baggy baggage man was so pessimistic and made it sound like it was gone forever. It's seriously making me consider not ever taking a case on holiday, just a small hand luggage one or something, so it's always by my side, safe and sound. Anyway, i had the best time.

envelope for project no.4


This is the envelope for no.4. I used the dog tea towel that i used for the naked drawing book because i thought it was quite fitting. Hopefully it wont get ruined.

Project no.4






So this is project no.4. I'm such a disgrace. Only four projects in the space of...5 months ish? Anyway, these are 'dog tags'. My friend Ollie's getting a pup and i thought i'd draw some dogs to brainstorm possible new names or something like that. Not very imaginative but they'll do.

envelope for project no.3




I love this envelope. I've really wanted to buy one of these for ages, but thought they were too good for ebay. So now, finally, i have a real reason to use one. It's from London Graphics Centre and was only about £1.45 i think. They do them in loads of different colours and sizes too. The head thing i bought from a car boot sale for 15p. I've got another one too just incase i need a small child's head for anything. They're gona ruin this at the post office though with their crappy white labels.
