Looks like TOPSHOP like a little bit of religion too. . .

Hand and Lock Project 2011

This is my work from before summer, of the denim jacket i made for the hand and lock competition. Its a bit simple, but really effective, and i put alot of time and effort into the piece. and it was the first thing i was proud of making, since i have been at uni.
DENIM is the fabric i would like to work with. I love the stuff. Its amazing. the most simplest of shapes, shredded to hell, falling apart, covered in beads, chains, studs and print could make the best Punky/gothic/edgy garment. I call it Trashion. :) In the slight style of Marques Almeida but i want to have a little bit more shape and a slightly little bit more detail. but i dont want to create fully tailored denim jackets and jeans. SHRED THE LOT :)

Marques Almeida

I am actually in love with this designer, or these designers should i say, as there are two to this brand. It's so edgy and grunge, interesting and simple. AND I LOVE IT. Denim is definatley my favourite fabric to work with, ever since the Hand and Lock Project earlier this year, which i did extremely well in. I finally found my place and know my strengths and weaknesses. I'd like to experiment and maybe print onto the denim rather than leaving it plain, BUT THEIR WORK INSPIRES ME!! AMAZING!! i love the distressed denim effect, shredding and fraying!! EXCITEMENT!!

Sacrilegious Artwork

Over the summer we were asked to produce an A5 sketchbook of drawings, research, colour and information, to create a theme and topic, my topic was RELIGION (Christianity). My sketchbook is more of a scrapbook, full of collages, bleach work and small art pieces. The art pieces are some of my favourite works and really enjoyed drawing and painting them. I put alot of time, effort and thought into them and i think they came out lovely andhave a slight sacrilegious twist.
