Happy Easter all

Few sketches for my final project, there are still some elements missing and some of them needs to be replaced etc. I will probably change the composition and shapes of some of them so lots of work in front of me.

Printing

 So I am working hard on my final project at the same time doing few experiments and trying out few different ways of working. I look on my fine line pens and inks with a little bit of nostalgia but I know this is the wright way to go and I also know there will be day that I will pick them up.

the lost Little Red Ridding Hood

This is something I have done some time ago and it have been published on my facebook fan page but had no time to share this on my blog as well. Probably something that will give you a hint which direction my new work is going to go.

A quick view on 2011

A quick view on few of many things that were happening in 2011. It was hard to pick up highlights because there was so many great things happening. My work has been published in couple of magazines and a book too I also took part in some great collaborations and spend some time traveling making new friends and meeting those old friends too. I have learned to do mono and crochet as well as becoming a specialist in making some good drinks. I have seen some amazing exhibitions and got my hands on a big pile of great books and magazines. Now looking forward what the 2012 will bring on and making the New Years resolutions :)

Back to creativity

After few weeks of doubts and lots of thinking, eating massive amount of unhealthy food.I think I'm finally back on track with creativity and inspiration as well as subject of my research essay. I am also back to making some delicious and healthy food so no more pizza and chips and as a challenge to boost my creativity I've started to learn crocheting which is going not as bad as I thought but still need to focus more on counting chains. I'm so happy to have my powers, inspiration and creativity back so I'm looking forward new and exiting plans.
