Bat For Lashes

Last month I saw Bat For Lashes (Natasha Khan) Play at Manchester Cathedral. Phenomenal! Words can't even begin to describe how amazing everything about the evening was!

The day after I was fooling around in ceramics having a go at drawing into semi dry clay. I drew Natasha, I don't think it looks like her but I was happy with the outcome anyway. Also I really enjoyed the process so there may well be more of this to come!

I love how different it can look just from a slight change in lighting too.

Peace

Liverpool

Early September I traveled to Liverpool for the first time for the Biennale (Amazing). I loved Liverpool so much, I really want to live there. Forget London!!

Berlin Diana F+

This was the first film I shot on my DianaF+ sadly not many photos came out but I am happy with the ones that did so thats okay :) From my trip to Berlin January 2011? maybe 2010? Definitely need to go back some time because we didn't get to see everything! But everything we did see was pretty fab :)

Some photos from my DianaF+ finally got the films developed a year later! A few from a visit to Nottingham Castle with my brother (above) showing Nicole (above) from Canadaaa Eh?! The sights of our hometown :) Miss you Nicole!! x x

ExposuresExposures

Today I've been playing around with coloured flashes, flowers and exposures! I created the layered, double and triple exposures in Photoshop CS4. Photos shot on a canon EOS 40d using the flash from my Diana f+ and quality street wrappers (over the flash not the lens) because I'm a hoarder and save shit like that... Above are a few of the shots I came out with. More to come soon!

Apologies for delays between posts, I was planning on posting loads over easter but shit happens. Anyway. Here I am getting back on the game!

Enjoy

Hello,

So it's been a little while, sorry about that!

I've just had a really lovely weekend with these two lovely ladies http://blandbox-believer.blogspot.com/ and http://aimee-walker.tumblr.com/ tea, coffee, cakes, yoga, drinks, dancing, shopping, fab food the lot!

I am exhausted! I need to take more photos again!

The sky has been really beautiful recently, I've spent a lot of time day dreaming in the sky instead of working on the presentation I'm supposed to be doing on thursday. It is stressing me out far too much. I'm making a video (which is horrible) of it because I physically can't get up and do it. Eurgh. I feel sick at the 

very thought of it!

Boomtown fair 2011

I'm having so many headaches at the moment too which might be related to my stressing over this presentation. have however found comfort in knowing that I'm not weird for enjoying my own company more of the time than not. A friend of mine says she's the same and spends a lot of time on her own. I was starting to think I was abnormal but I'm not so that makes me happy :)

Apologies for the whiney post and the lack of general postage! Be back on the game soon!

 Hope you're all well, more illustration on it's way too!

And the finished Moon-Dreamer is on her way! Yeah exciting times!

Re-discovered this photo that I took in Whitby Bay. Went there in the summer of 2010, although the weather wasn't very summery! But then again, this is England after all.
Photoshop CS4 The left hand half was the original image. Duplicated and mirrored.
:) I love Whitby bay, definately will return some day.
