TURN AROUND BITCH! Your beautiful...

 We make our own meanings and assumption out of words, but does the real meaning reflect the remnant meaning? Or Does the original word just lose its value?

An A-Z Ant story

An ant will always be an ant.

But an ant will never be a dog.

Cats don’t like ants

Dogs certainly don’t care about ants.

 

Eating is the best part of an ant’s day, so

Food always goes missing.

Grandma likes to leave the ants a little present,

Honey.

 

I like ants.

Grandma hates ants, because the

Kitchen always gets raided.

Looking at them makes her itch.

 

Making cakes is really fun, but

Nobody eats with me so I,

Opened a jar of honey and invite the ants to my tea

Party.

 

Question, Mr. ant asked. “You must

Really hate us ants. You keep killing us!”

“Stop being silly, I said. I’m just trying to give you a

Treat! “

 

Under the tree, was a

Very serious meeting with all the ants.

Water ran down my window so I couldn’t see what was happening. The

Xylophone doorbell rang and Mr. ant appeared.

 

You must stop opening Jars of honey, or else I’ll call my friend…

Zzz…Buzzz…

A light hearted story to fill the pages of my little hand made book.

My First Book from Scratch!




This is the first hand crafted book i've ever written, illustrated and binded . I'm actually quite proud of myself considering i had to make 3. Making a book was one of the options as a module's i was taught how to book bind by the art director of wired magazine. To be honest its not that hard to do. It all comes down to precision once you learnt the technique. 

The book I made was very child like, simple and clean cut. I shall up load the story a little later.

Missing Keys

New Moon Illustration


The more I draw and sketch, the more I realise how much I miss making and drawing things. This illustration was ment to be a short picture story about a lost butterfly. I never had time to finish it. I plan to continue it after I hand in my other projects.

Finally i have internet!

Were there's a will there IS a way. I'm sure i could have found a way to blog but inspiration couldn't break free from my house and reach me were ever there was internet. My blog is not allowing me to load stuff so i can't show you all the little things i've been bursting to share with you. But i will tell you to check out this web link on the New pomegranate phone totally random but cool. Even i want one.


Now go forth and enjoy the random wonders of technology, before it makes you jobless and insufficient

Underwater Photography


By Elena Kalis. If you want to see more of her work then visit her website. Her work is amazing. It's nice to see photography in other surrounding elements like sky and sea. She mainly photographs her daughters and close friends. One thing that did make me wonder, is in some of her other pictures i think she may of used photoshop. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but i feel that photography is a skill. Being able to catch the lighting, the dark edges and the movement in one frame shows more skill than editing a picture of a  beautiful PhotoShoped nymph. Now don't get me wrong, PhotoShop is cool but not for professional photographers that sell their work.

Eco Friendly Art


These two pic's are my current favourite pieces of Yuken Teruya's work. All of his art work is made from recycable materials. His work is simple and delicate yet beautiful in every tiny bit of detail and cuttings.

Accidental Beauty




Today after eating an orange i carved the words "love me" into the skin. A random message, which i felt i couldn't throw away so it was left drying on my bedroom floor. I then noticed my cup of water reflected a lovely array of colours when the sun shone
 threw my window... that when i started snapping away. I can actually say i love my lil'orange peel now lol.
