Little Doodles

So here it is...my last ever week as a full time student...no more education for me! It really has been a manic few months, culminating in the Graduate Fashion exhibition last week at the Royal Academy. Not only was it a relief to get everything up on the wall finished but it was a proud moment for all of us and a really lovely night (although the room cleared pretty quickly after the free drink ran out...perfectly understandable!). Now as the week starts I'm in a mad rush to finish my very final project for handing in on Friday and my energy is running low but I'm trying to keep going as best I can.

All of the birds I know have expensive taste...

Oh dear...it's been a long time but I have a good reason...details to follow!

...if anyone wants to donate one to an avid doodler who would make great of use it, here I am!

Flowers for a sunny day

I know these are wedding favours but I love the idea of them as mini storage

Variation on the flower below...I can't decide whether I prefer the more traditional watercolour or the outline?

Spring flower (although it seems to be dried)

Nearly Easter!

Take a look at new online fashion mag Amour...I have some illustrations featured in there and it's well worth the read!

I just heard back from my tutors...I got a first!

Apparently parakeets have started appearing in London and are now a threat to other species of birds...personally I can't think of anything I would like to see more than a flock (is that the right word?) of colourful parakeets on a sunny spring morning! Although my sympathies go to the other birds if the report is right :)

My name is Kate and I am a shoe and jean-a-holic

I feel a bit empty...my major project is done and after nearly half a year of looking the same drawings day in day out I'm not quite sure what to do with myself. All of my illustrations ended up on a wall with various collected trinkets from charity shops/fairs/markets etc. As much as I enjoyed it I am now savouring the "me" time and am revelling in the fact that I can now get back to things like teaching myself how to knit, some beading and generally lazing around for a few weeks...bliss!

Say cheese...
