Hello friends!
I haven't written a blog post in a while as this term I have been buried in dissertation writing. I thought I'd do a quick post about my first experience of Riso printing. Near the end of November myself and a few friends ventured down to Dizzy Ink , in Cobden Chambers for a Risograph workshop ...
Read MoreMy personal project 'Portrait series'!
Over the second half of my summer I wanted to do something different, and get my illustrating skills warmed up again for uni. I'm a sucker for watercolours and a good TV series, so I thought why not combine the two?

Read MoreI've always really been into photography, but aside from Kodak disposable cameras I've never had any experience with shooting on film.

Read MoreOn Monday (28.09.15), a rare (blood moon and a super moon! So a super-blood moon?) blood-red eclipse started at 1:10am (BST), which will be the last total lunar eclipse visible from the UK until 2019. The last time a blood moon coincided with a lunar eclipse was in 1982 and the event will not be repeated until 2033! Just before bed, around 1AM the eclipse started ...
Read MoreDoodle round-up for september!
This month I decided to do something a bit different and give illustration another go (as I'm a little out of practice!!). I've started a little series, in which I want to combine illustration, typography and a few of my favourite TV characters. I've started the illustrations and now I just have to consider the type! ...
