Read, Listen, Learn, Create.

I've been drawing a lot of book covers recently as little drawing exercises to play with my technique. 

I don't really read as much as I should. I'm constantly busy with freelancing and then working my part time job and just being a person and I usually reach for Netflix before bed instead of a book. It bugs me, I used to live in books and I do still love them. It got me onto thinking about how we consume books nowadays. A lot of mine are through the radio or audiobooks while I'm working. Which led into this piece:

I'm trying to vary my colour palette more at the moment. I always grab onto bright bolds and contrast them with cool colours and I find my work doesn't seem to translate well without them. I managed not to use pink, purple or yellow today though. So thats a plus.

Two Things To Do!

I'll be honest I've been pretty un-motivated at the moment at uni. I just need to get more excited about the time I have left here instead of panicking too much about whats going to happen in a few months time.
So I've made myself deadlines, planned a routine and am generally kicking it up a knotch starting with this little project done for fun about a bbc radio 4 comedy show that I'm in love with.

So here is Two Things to do Before (or after) Your'e Thirty:

 

I'm excited to try some varying colours out on these babies and get em' printed out on some nice stock. Might be something to take along to New Blood as a souvenir (If I get picked to go....Please!!)
