Ghosts of gone birds♡

An exciting little event of the past couple of weeks has been my participating in a wonderful new exhibition in Brighton ...opening on 8th November based on the theme of extinct birds. It's super exciting!!!...read more HERE ! !

For my piece I did a detailed drawing of a Dodo which you can see in progress here with me in my room :)

Here's a mini version of my piece! (should be available as a print at the exhibition soon!)

I feel incredibly lucky to be part of such an amazing exhibition of such a variety of super talented artists! Some of the pieces really blew me away! Don't want to reveal too much as I think you all should go visit for yourselves and see some truly beautiful birdy related treats! 

The wonderful lady who I couldn't have done all of this without needs a mention too, the wonderful Debbie, who runs MoonKo an online platform of wonderful artists (I'm again lucky to be part of!)

Tim's magical wonderland ♡

Hello lovelies! Thought I'd do a little post on the current Tim Walker exhibition on at Somerset House,

Tim Walker is right up there as one of my main creative inspirations, he is just amazing, namely why I decided to write my dissertation on him, which (aside from the scary technicality of the marking of my writing side) I am absolutely loving!

His style - influenced by a love of all things childlike and fairytale is just so perfect, and I'm loving discovering new films and ways of seeing things just through researching into his ideas behind each shoot.

Since I first saw the candy kittens in the garden and the ribbon tied house from his last book 'Pictures', I've been hooked... you can see my earlier blog post with all my love for that HERE !

On Wednesday night me and my friend Phoebe went a talk he gave all about his ideas and feelings about Photography, and really his vision is just incredible. He full on follows his imagination for pictures hooking into that bit of  daydream and exploiting it into something truly excessive and magical that draws us into a world that can only be in the clouds of our dreams.  

My favourite part had to be the giant sized doll fro January Vogue Italia's 'Like a Doll' shoot & the Spitfire that was crashing through the walls. We were lucky enough to meet the magical man himself too! - Pretty starstruck!

Anyway here are a few sparkly pictures I took! Hope you enjoy and are having wonderful weekends!  Lots of love x x x
