insecurities and uncertainty

November work

I really really really really really want to be an Art teacher..

So yeah at the moment most of my focus is on PGCE'S a i feel becoming a teacher will benefit my career as an artist. Learning to use my own skills and knowledge as a creative person, to help others learn is something very appealing to me. Ive always had respect for my teachers, and it is something i strongly value.

Ive learnt how to be self critical and self reflective which is not something everyone can do.

PGCE is so competitive though since the Art cut's, 300 people apply, 20 get a place. Therefore my personal statement has to be prefect.

Watch this space.

A few Lino Prints :)

floral

something that has come to my attention is the fact that whenever i buy something i always choose something floral or containing flowers. For example my phone case is floral, bed covers, make up bag, pencil case, macbook case, card holder, purse, bag(s), socks, lightshade, pillow plus more.

I like repetition but using repetition to create something different and unique.

LINO PRINTS coming soon!

Glitter, Ink, Tissue paper, pencil, pen....

Sketch Book Work

A sample of some pages from my sketch book. Recently I have been producing work within my sketch books , exploring artists, and exploring with using different media. Im very eager to return to my studio in London, I'm feeling not nervous but excited about entering my final year at Kingston. Third year has fast approached and there is no time to mess around, i have big plans for third year. Its time to push the boundaries, i know i developed as an Artist massively during my second year, and i want to continue this through third year and produce Art work that i am proud of. Recently i have been blogging a lot, i find it a useful place to store my ideas, and my more recent practices. It also helps with my writing and makes is easier to explain my ideas/thoughts.
