interesting as it has a modern contemporary update on

I have posted this work as I find it interesting because it has a very light almost watercolour effect to it , as it reminds me of Claude Monet's work , which I like.

This wallpaper is made form the company Cole 
and Son. what I really like about this 
collection is light colour palette and I feel 
this relates to my work because I am also 
designing birds within my work.

Owl Print Gift Bag

                                http://www.notonthehighstreet.com/lisaangelhomewareandgifts

I think these bags are really interesting and I can relate them 
to my work in a way because they have a naïve quality to them this makes me 
think that my work in a way has the same quality.

Pratt Factory

The reason I have posted this card is because I think it is
really interesting in the way they have appliqued
different materials onto the products as it
makes them less plain.  This makes me think
for my work I could add materials and more media
to enhance its qualities.

 The reason I like them is they are quite contemporary and abstract, why I have posted them is because they are quite a contrast to everything else I have looked at in terms of style within the interiors.

Both images are from the website www.vogue.com

The reason I like this Dolce and Gabbana collection
is the colours are so bold and strong and then other pieces in the 
collection are much ethereal which is a contrast that I like. 
I also like that  is floral as even though is a tried and tested 
theme, the designers have put their own twist onto the theme.

The Dolce and Gabbana collection , I have posted these images because I like the collection , the reason being is I think it looks like a fairy tale and much ethereal which is the concept I am working with for my studio work.

into the computer.

I have chosen to look at Louise brody's work as her style is quite naïve and charming
and I feel this is what my work is in some ways she also always using interesting colour choice such as grey or certain type of green which is interesting, I find her work quite influential.

Home Sense Shop Report: Metrocentre

Own photo

Own photo

These two photos are from my second trip to the home sense shop at the metro centre I was looking at the trends within fashion which was animal prints again. The contrast between these two is the scale and size of the digital prints, as the dress has large prints, whereas the shirt has smaller prints on it which is a contrast.

Drawing sheet

The first image shows some more progress I have made on my a1 sheet , I have made good progress and have added more to the sheet as I wanted the sheet to be filled.  What  I like about the sheet is the lily and the swan as I think they work quite well together, as I think they fit the concept enthral quite well.  The second image shows my finished a1 drawing
sheet , where I have added more drawings combing animals with flowers.
