Triumph Window Piece

The Triumph brief is finally over all

lines are closed and editing can now be

laid to rest.

I have enjoyed the brief as its gave me a chance

to explore different mediums and avenues.

The concept for my campaign is to communicate

 how “magical”  A Triumph bra can feel on any women 

when properly fitted.

My research revealed that women today want 

a perfect fitting bra. 

One that cannot be felt, almost invisible, 

like air, floating with them while they work or play.

The varying shapes and sizes of women today 

were the inspiration behind my concept. 

Using their words I illustrated the magical part a bra plays in every womens life when perfectly fitted......it Flys!!! 

Triumph brief

Its been a hardworking couple of weeks for everyone.

Closer and closer graduation is creeping up and we are all in our last fight to create the best work we possibly can.

I have been working on the YCN brief for 

Triumph and the end is nigh.  

I am beginning to close in on my finished design 

and I thought you might like to have a look.

These are just the trial runs so i need to develop this final idea.  I am going to be creating a pop up 3D version of my concept using a mix of fabrics and illustrations.

Watch out for the next update where I will be using all my donated bras to laser cut some wings for a bigger 3D installation that will be part of the window display.

1 Day Project

In the true spirit of valentines day

I decided to set myself a one day project.

My theme was "Love" of course and rather

than spending 3 weeks on one project

this gave me a chance to really just go for

it with an idea and in doing so i created a mini

one day book with a couple of 

pieces of inspiration along with my final piece

which can be seen below.

My final piece "Kiss me" is done using

gesso transfers ink and photoshop.

All comments would be appreciated........

My Final Piece

Interim Exhibition

Every year 4th year students

at Grays Art school hold an

Interim Exhibition.

This stands as a trial run before

degree show and I think I 

speak for everyone when I say

IT HAS COME ROUND TOO FAST.......

We were all rushing about trying to 

get everything done on time,

just aswell working under pressure is one

thing I can do.

I have took some examples of my work

to show you all.

Exhibited are some examples of

my current work; Ideas for Triumph 

brief and their new bra fitting service.

These are just some initial cut outs

from my sketchbooks which I hung with old

bra straps and measuring tape for

some extra meaning.

The thought of graduating can be quite

a scary thought as theres so much

pressure to impress and produce a

vast body of work.

However, I think everyone is secretly

excited to move onto bigger and better things.

Triumph Brief

The Triumph brief

When searching through my trusted

friend google and some other random blogs, 

as you do, looking for some inspiration 

for my new YCN Project. 

Our Brief to create 
a piece of communication,
which promotes Triumphs new 
bra fitting service
I came across some amazing blasts from the past

I wanted you all to see.
amazing.....
My favourite is the "Toosh"
I am using these vintage advertisements
to inspire my design but plan to add
a contemporary edge.

Vintage Fair

I heart art hosted there first Vintage fair on Sunday and it was without a doubt a massive success. 

Loads of people greeted our stalls with christmas smiles to begin their festive shopping.

I got to meet some lovely people and show off all my new furniture, especially my green display cabinet.  It looked great on the day all decorated.

I recently sourced these beautiful cushions to sell at my shop.

I bought them and transferred some type using a new approach called magi flex. I think most printers offer this service and its a really good way of adding your own style to an item.

It was a great experience meeting and greeting new people.

Check out some of the other stall holders who sell all sorts vintage goodies:
