I'm wrapping up all the loose ends of my degree work now.  Sadly we are not able to have a end of year graduate show - instead the Northern School of Art are putting on an online show which will cover all the departments across college.   We have been invited to submit one entry and given fairly strict guidelines for presentation.   

I should imagine its been very difficult for every student to decide which piece of work to showcase and for a lot of people harder still as there work is very tactile and relies on a 3 dimensional approach - those doing costume studies for example as well as a large number of my contemporaries.  


I came up with 3 different possibilities based on what I thought would translate well in an exhibition and also which were my favourite designs  - its hard to get as much detail in as I would like as we were reminded some people will access this on a mobile phone and then any small writing for example will disappear 


I ended up with 7 different collections all based on the starting concept of Juxtaposition and they all ended up quite different - purposely so as I wanted to appeal across differetn markets but htis has made it very difficult to choose one final example of my work to put on show - Any how in the end I choose one of these three designs - you will have to look on line after the show opens on July 2nd to see which I felt the most effective in the circumstances.

Scotland part 2

The second half of the week continued in much the same vein.  We had one rainy afternoon which was actually quite nice to be holed up in the house with the rain lashing the windows.  It probably wasn't quite so nice for the two visitors that came on their bikes but they're tough cookies - and its only water- but I did feel sorry for them having to cycle six miles back down the track in the wind and rain, but given Scotland,  it wasn't as bad as it could be.

Funchal

So after three days at sea we finally hit Funchal in Madeira.  An escape from the ship, and I have to say it was very pleasant indeed.  First of all the weather is really splendid.  Especially when you know that everybody else in the UK is suffering grim storms and vile winds..  Over here it is between 22 and 25 degrees is really quite warm.    Funchal is a pretty city. It's built on a hill it with lots of lovely white houses with stunning red roofs.   In order to get the best of it we walked along the sea front until we got to the cable car and we took it up the hill.  It was a really good ride much longer than we imagined and it's quite weird because it goes right through the town -  completely over everybody's house...  So not only do you get a lovely vista of the bay but you can view the beautiful rooftops and get to look in everybody's gardens and to look at their picnic sets.. clean washing nice plants... scratty backyards.... We got off th
