CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL

So it's very early for Christmassy related news... but I'll be selling my illustrated goodies at the Platform Creatives Christmas Fair in Peckham on Sat 13th December. It's my first one so I'm prepping my products and decorations for the stand at the moment and hoping I don't forget anything! Hoping to do a lot more fairs and festivals next year too...

POP

Oh I haven't posted since Halloween, oops! I've been working a lot since then and have eaten out in London a few times so will do some more 'Illustrated Eats' reviews... I also visited the poppies at the Tower of London and Borough market on Friday (which is lovely) where I discovered 'pineapple tomatoes' which I didn't even know existed!

Speaking of work, here is something I've been doing for a few weeks - website homepage illustrations for an extras casting company called POP. The illustrations are to explain the service that POP provides for extras and agents... I used a mix of hand drawn and vector illustrations and incorporated the companies teal colour to tie everything together. 

 

I PUT A SPELL ON YOU

So this is a little late, but I've only just sat at my computer after the Halloween weekend! I didn't get to celebrate last year as we'd recently moved into our London flat so everything was a bit manic. This year more than made up for it :)

On Thursday me and the housies carved pumpkins and watched Hocus Pocus, then on Friday I headed to Cambridge to party with some Uni mates. I painted my face as a skull (pinterest inspiration!) and wore a long lace dress... my mates all made a great effort too and we danced away at a metal night, brill :D

I thought I'd post the Halloween photos here, plus a roundup of my costumes from the past however many years...!

 

Skull thing...

Cat...

Another cat (actually supposed to be that cat that was put in a bin by a woman) no one guessed what I was supposed to be, ha...

Max from 'Where the Wild Things Are'...

Some sort of scary bunny...

Joan of Arc...

And an evil elf... (everyone thought I was Link from Zelda!)
