recreating





the denim neck piece and the high waist skirt i created when i was doing my art foundation at farnham and i think they are some of the best pieces i have created. we only had a week to create the denim piece so i had to staple it together but i would love to recreate a few more in different materials and different shapes. the brief was to create something futuristic, that shape i got was half a model and half a planet which i traced and then transfered to the fabric and i think its a great out come.
with the skirt i used curtain fabric and used embroidery to create a bolder pattern and used netting at the back. with the shoes i brought £10 from primark and covered them in glitter and sequins which everyone loved and i reckon were pretty awesome.
with the mask it was one of my first projects at AUCB and we were only allowed to use paper. i think it went really well and i loved the outcome i created.

tattoo designs



This is my foot tattoo. i designed it my self and since having it done 2 years ago ive been designing tattoos for friends and family members and my tattoo designs have become quite a big hit. i love drawing and tattoos so this is a good mix and i get to design unique tattoos no one else will have!

ideal job

is there such a thing??
everyone has there perfect job role in mind that will set them up for life and give them a successful career, but alot of people work from 9 till 5 stuck in some dingy office.
i know my ideal job would be a celebrity stylist. i don't care if i'm famous but i would like to work with the famous! why? because you get alot of money and alot of friends and contacts. this would be a dream world, and i say dream world because it is just a dream.
no one believes in me enough to help me pursue ideas and career options or even help me out with simple uni projects which i find hard, but only because i cant do what i want to do and i hate rules! who doesn't?? but their there to be broken right?
i usually just do my own thing but people who employ you don't like that you have to obey the rules and listen to the big boss, thats why i think working for me is my ideal job! i can do my own thing and work at my own pace without being yelled at or criticized all the time which is a bit of a put down.

size zero......is it a size?

Every female looks at celebrities and models and want their figure as it is seen as the most idolized!! but is it really??
EVERY image you see in the magazines has been airbrushed to make every model and celebrity look flawless, this includes reducing stomach bulges, bingo wings, spots, cellulite etc and yes they are real people they don't wake up in the morning looking like that they probably look worse then us in the morning due to busy schedule's and the amount of make up piled on their faces and hairspray used their skin and hair is in such bad condition!!
alot of people diet to get a boyfriend or to get noticed but your more likely to get noticed for being you and trust me men find it disgusting seeing a womans ribs or hip bones!
i know i've looked at magazines and been breath-taken by how stunning some women look and how perfect they are but its all FAKE!!
here are perfect examples of post production






Britney spears wanted her images to be shown in their true form and here you can see her waist arms and legs have been made smaller, her skin tone evened out and her hair made blonder.
Cameron Diaz has had her skin tone evened, hair made blonder, and because she is a sporty person she has a slender figure but they have removed her stomach muscle line.
With Jessica alba every one thinks of her as a sex symbol because she is small but if you see in this photo she has been made smaller. her legs waist and arms have been made smaller and her lips have been made redder.
Keira Knightley has had major post production in this ad for her film King Arther. she has been made to look more tanned and her boobs have gone up a few cup sizes!

By these you can see everyone is all the same but celebrities are made to look fabulous because they are our role models and trend setters. just like normal people they work to get slender figures but those who cant be bothered to hit the gym get airbrushed to look smaller. its not a good look and isn't normal. Models however starve them selves to be small but alot have died from anorexia at such a young age and that isn't healthy. so when you next look at your role model on the front of your favorite magazine just remember that they don't look like that and you would look as twice as good if your were airbrushed!!
