SORT

Went to a pilates class for the first time this evening, it was pretty good. Although mainly just a room of old ladies breathing noisily!

This week I have two lovely new things, a graphite pencil from 'Labour and Wait' in London and the perfect white tshirt from '& other stories', delivered today. Also got a Brick Lane bagel while I was in London at the weekend. Standard.

  

EFFORTLESS

Just a silly illustration in response to a tweet I got the other day...

 

Think they might have got the wrong Estelle! haha.

It used to really annoy me that I had the same name as an MP when I was growing up, but I guess it's kind of funny now :)

SO glad it's Friday though, had a busy week at work with cost sheets and project briefs and emails... just makes me want to go freelance even more! Think I'm going to chill out with a PHAT chocolate cake (serves 2, yeah right) and watch youtube vids.

Tomorrow I have a new laptop arriving, yay! No more dodgy screen and slowness.. also got an Adobe Cloud subscription so I'll have the whole of CS6 at me' fingertips too!

RUN

Busy weekend and week so far! Very tired but is all good :)

I spent the weekend away in Surrey, working as a runner on a music video shoot – I loved it so much, and hopefully they're going to have me back for more jobs! We were filming in a stripped out office building on Saturday and then at a small airport on Sunday. It was freezing, but so much fun!

I not only got paid but ended up bringing back what was left of the lunch buffet as I had a car! Plus I have the remaining smoke flares we were using… will have to keep them for a special occasion ;-)

Also this week I have an amazing illustration/design job that I'm super excited about. Will hopefully be working with the company more as an on going thing… update soon!

YAWN

I am very tired today, hence the blog title...

I went to London yesterday for an illustration job meeting, which then got cancelled at the last minute so instead I mooched about Kings Cross area for a while then went to meet me' best bud and his mates for some food and beer in Brixton.

We may have gone a bit overboard with the amount of chicken we ordered at Wishbone...!

Train/Costa sketches

Plus I finished my blogger portrait, for Roos over at Lace and Pearls. She really liked it which was great! 

I'm going for a quick beer tonight, then packing for my weekend away on the music video! I know I'll be so tired though... but having two nights to myself in a hotel is a good chance to catch up on some work/reading/sleep. Plus a full english!! :)

SPINE

Working on an illustration for a lovely fashion blog, along with a bowl of strawberries and sugar :)

 

I didn't get to start my zine this weekend... typical haha. I had fun though! Ate out at Jamie-Olivers-dads-pub near Saffron Walden and went to see my brother in Chelmsford on Sunday. We passed the BBC filming Snog Marry Avoid and I saw the three biggest cuddly dogs ever.
