The end... or the beginning....

It's all over. The degree show has been and gone and now all there is to do is wait and see what happens!
It went pretty well and there seems to be some interest in my work, which is always lovely! I had my two walls and a little plinths and after a bit of hassle with how and what I was going to put up it ended up looking quite good... if I do say so myself! I also made some little temporary tattoos (of the birds from christmas and of the battersea dogs) which I gave out with my business card and they all disappeared really quickly. I have a few more around so feel free to contact me for one if you missed out!
The Truman looked great and there was tonnes of fab work up from the other Middlesex illustrators (to check a few out take a look here: http://www.boxsetmdx.com/)




I also found out after that I'd been featured here:
and also here,
which is really flattering! Thanks guys!

Lastly, I just wanted to add, at the risk of being ridiculously slushy and sentimental, how much I've enjoyed the last few years. I'll miss the course and the tutors, particularly Martin and Andrew who have really influenced me over the years. The other illustrators on the course are all really talented individuals and I hope they all get the success they so truly deserve! They are lovely people and I couldn't imagine these past three years without them.

    1. Thankyou very much! I discovered Kate Slater the other day! Her work is absolutely lovely and I love Peter Clark's use of maps and found papers. Hopefully I can rise to their heights! x

    1. Thankyou! That's very sweet of you to say. Middlesex was indeed Emma Block's uni too! She was in the year above. Her work is wonderful and she is doing really well for herself! The Middlesex illustration course really does produce some fab illustrators! x
