Final piece for project

So i've finished my final piece for the project, and i'm really pleased with the result. Basically, it is a canvas print that i've made look like a shop window (relating to fashion) and i've drawn one skinny almost anorexic mannequin and on the other side i have drawn a curvy mannequin (based on my size). The skinny mannequin is shaded with pencil to make it look pale with dull clothes, the curvy mannequin has got a colourful dress which shows how happy it is being bigger. I have also glued newspaper clippings amongst the drawings related to the topic.

All in all, i'm really pleased with the final piece and my sketchbook

Thanks!

Final idea for project

Well i've finally come up with an idea for my project which I think is different and interesting. So i'm going to discuss Fashion and Body Image, and whether one affeects the other.

I can definitely relate to both topics, and they fit into my sense of place as body image is a huge factor in my life, and i also love fashion.

I will talk about fashion, designers, their influence, models etc, and then talk about celebrities and their impact on us with their diets etc.

This will be a lot of fun to research and to put into the sketchbook, just have to think of a final piece now ......

Ideas for project

So, I have had many deifferent ideas on what to do for my project. First of all I thought of doing something on my family, where we live etc, but although my family means a lot to me I could not think of something to link in to sense of place.

Then I thought about doing something relating to jewellery, as i love buying new jewellery and wearing them out for the first time.

Another idea I had was to talk about comfort in my life, whether that is at home or with friends etc.

With all these ideas, I will have to work out which one will give me enough information to put into the sketchbook and to make a final piece

Assignment ideas

Hey everyone!
Well, as soon as Mandy told us about the assignment i went into panic mode almost instantly (The norm for me the last few weeks!) I'm not the most creative person when it actually comes to the ideas part of it; once i've got an idea or a general concept, i seem to be fine after that, ideas seem to flow freely (as long as i write them down straight away haha) and once i've got a proper plan i'm on a roll!

I've been racking my brain all the time, and ive sort of come up with something, but it's gonna take a lot of work and a lot of paper/notes!

The thing i panic about with stuff like this, is that my idea isnt going to be good enough or just rubbish, so once i've come up with a better plan i'll let y'all know :)

Well, that's all for now, got a few worries off my chest.
Toodles!
