A-Level Art

I've been doing a lot of collage for my recent unit for Fine Art, when I came across illustrator/film maker Quentin Jones' work. It's so original and uber cool. I was instantly jealous of her skills, so I decided to do an inspired piece today. I want to use her as an influence in my future work as well. 
As you can see my work is on the left and Quentin Jones' is on the right.
Also if anyone is interested I used magazines, papers, masking tape and paint in my work. 

More to come! xx

Party Outfit for under £15

I had a party on Friday and because of Christmas I don't have much money to spend on new outfits etc. 
I managed to get a really simple but sophisticated outfit for under £15!

The dress is a simple and tight fitting with long sleeves. It was from H&M for £9.99!! I can wear this so much as it's a basic dress, you can easily dress it up or down. To add some sparkle I bought this gold belt from Primark for £2.50...I was so happy! Of course don't forget the heels, but I have so many black heels so I didn't need to buy a new pair. 

A grand total of £12.49!

Fashion photography shoots




 For my A2 photography project my title is "New and Old, Fashion photography"

Shoot 1 - I looked at Norman Parkinson and David Bailey, I styled my models in a 50s/60s inspired way and used textured walls.

Shoot 2 - I looked at Andy Warhol and Corrine Day and the change of the photobooth throughout time. I edited my pictures into a photobooth grid like print.

Shoot 3 - I was focusing on the retro, 'kitsch' quality of the seaside and how the British seaside as become iconic.

Shoot 4 - I was inspired by 80s/90s fashion and the grunge trend of the 90s. I also wanted to add a more contemporary urban element to my shoot. This is why I shot it in a junk yard.

Hope you like them and I'll update about my rather shoots.
