Website Redesign
I’d been wanting to give my site a makeover for months now; ever since switching to wordpress last summer, it was just in need of a better theme. It was annoying me how my portfolio was taking a back seat, even though my blog is important to me, you need your work to be right...

AW Trends: Yumi
As I said in a previous post about Yumi and our AW lookbook, I promised I’d post the trend boards for this season. Mainly because I curated and designed them! So these should be up in my Portfolio soon – I need to make a ‘Graphic Design’ subsection. I can’t publicicse most of the work...
AOI Open Portfolios Evening
On thursday 21st Jan I went to an AOI Portfolio Evening. This was my first one I’d been to, they do them every 6 months or so, and thought it would be really great to get advice on my portfolio, now that I’ve graduated. I’m an AOI member so it only cost me £11, which...

Portfolio review with Airside!

That in itself is pretty damn exciting, but my tutor also told me that they’d be booking me in for a portfolio review with an art director/someone in the industry/person. I got an email today saying that my Review will...
Seven Deadly Sins: Finished Project
I never actually thought I would be able to finish this in time for deadline. This project has been so stressful; fun though. And even though I had to rush these a bit, I’m really pleased with them. Here we go: I won’t put the titles up; one of the ideas of the project was...
My Online Portfolio on Creativematch.co.uk
So I’ve now got a Student portfolio on creativematch.co.uk, which is rather nice. Exposure and all that jazz. You can check it out here. It’s all on this blog anyway but slightly easier to manoevre around. Clap clap for me. Apart from that, no new work to post yet. Might do IF this week though,...
