and relax

I had my half term week last week which was lovely and I managed to take some lovely pictures to match my near perfect week. It was great to just be at home, spend time with my beautiful mister and catch up with people I neglect due to my busy work load. I had a few lazy mornings, a huge walk in the country side, a day visit to a village for cider and cake, visited the zoo and I celebrated two birthdays..perfect.

going grey

Good day y'all! well my wall paper designs have moved on quite a bit since I last blogged about my designs but it is certainly a good movement so no need to frown just yet. My colour palette has now gone a little more sober and moved in to nude, pale grey and a very pale mint, the lines are now less graphic and I have reverted back to the aesthetic that I loved most in my original drawings but somehow lost...broken lines, distress and ageing ** much like myself in my final hour of any project ** hope you like the new colours.

RSA Student Design Award 2012

I mentioned I had entered the RSA Student Design award a while before Christmas now. The brief I entered was to design a collection of Royal Mail postage stamp which promoted the concept of 'environmental changes'...I am very much a full time preaching green pioneer *think Stella McCartney in a half dosage*...so this was just perfect. My subject matter was food waste, I personally hate wasting food and never leave food on my plate...which admittedly sometimes isn't a good thing...but never the less promoting the reduction of food waste to consumers was what I aimed to achieve. The deadline is now closed so I can show you my submission....take a look.
