Manchester || 13/03/2011

Photos taken on a recent trip to Manchester... I just love how pictures like these can inspire me, i love the change in perspective and colour in these buildings, which would be usually be overlooked by the ordinary person looked by the normal person!! - Great trigger of inspiration!!!

Well Hello||Patrick-nagel-80s-fashion-illustration

Bold, bright and beautiful illustrations created on board, paper, and canvas;in a distinctive style, im in love with these lets hope they bring me some inspiration... might have to look into buying some of these for my studio :) so modern yet influenced from Art Deco.. and created in the 80's... might have to pick up some 1980's fashion books tomorrow!!!

Close Ups || Sue Timney

Last few images from the Sue Timney...... these are my favorite images and link perfectly into the 360 trend from wgsn where scientific instruments and geometric shapes are suggested! Which i tend to investigate in my designs.... love the contrast with the back and colour!!

WGSN Macrotrend - Primal Futurism

Ok so it's time to start posting my new project work project for my Degree show..... 5 weeks in now yes you heard right!!!!!! Pressure has hit me bad!!!!! THIS IS IT!!!!!!!! No room for mistakes (all tho i've just made 5weeks of them)..... so after 5 weeks wasted i think i've finally cracked a theme!!! Which i can adapt my style for semester one taking forwards this Geometric structures i ever so love!! So i've been looking over the WGSN Macrotrend - Primal Futurism any trying to get my head around it!! and now its time to get cracking!!!!!!

So a little abit about this trend... Primal Futurism looks at the raw power of image making from our basic urge to place Pencil on paper (news to my ears... as i need to start with a pencil with every design...) This is a modern them which takes from ancient world and mixes it with the modern word.... a graphic theme exploring a new language!! Creating a bold statment with bright colours combinations!!

Pictures too follow......
