NEW RESOLUTIONS

1/24/2019

0 Comments

 
This year I have decided there will be no new year, new me as I don't want change, I just want more. More art, more designs, move creativity. So in 2019 I want to invest more time into my art and design work. It's relaxing and therapeutic and the World needs more of it.

Look out for more of my work.

CHRISTMAS PANTS

It is so surreal to see your designs come to life onto fabric. I'm still new at this but it's a great feeling telling everybody thats your design. I designed this a year ago and have been waiting to post this for a while. I feel incredibly proud to say this was from my very first design job straight  out of uni, just after 6 weeks into the job.
As a designer there are times when it is very frustrating and difficult to find work, inspiration or time. But you really do have to power through because in the end when it all comes together and works out, it's so worth it.

I have been offered an amazing opportunity to freelance for George at Asda. Designing prints and editing artwork for 2 months for Kids wear boys and girls ranging from 0 months to 14 years. It is such a great privilege to be working under a big high street brand and in the main head office. I've already learnt so much about designing and freelancing, also I can now add Kids wear to my portfolio. I can't wait to see some of the designs I have worked on out in stores next year.

I was offered an amazing opportunity to work as an Assistant print designer for 3 months for Monsoon Accessorize in their head office in London, Notting Hill. 
I've never been or wanted to be a Londoner, but this was an offer I could not refuse. Being a recent graduate working under such a huge big branded name was incredible. I learnt so much and met the most lovely friendly people and I enjoyed ever second of it. I am so pleased to say that some of the designs I worked on will be on sale soon in stores Worldwide, which is a great achievement that I am going to share with you and yes, I am going to buy them!
I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity and the people there who supported me and I cannot wait to see what the next adventure holds.

A week ago today I graduated and it was one of the most proudest moments of my life. It was a very happy but yet emotional today. Knowing I won't be returning back to Nottingham this September after calling it my home for three years is deeply upsetting. I've had the most amazing time and met some incredible people along the way. It's now time to find a job and career in print design which is what I've worked so hard to achieve. Notts I miss you and can not thank you enough!

Degree Show... what a night!

6/19/2017

It was such an incredible experience to have my work on display in Uni, watching people coming and looking at my work and listening to people talk about it was great. I had the pleasure of talking to people from industry and made a few connections. The degree show brought my three years at Trent to a close and it was an excellent send off, wishing I could go back and do those three years all over again.
Its onwards and upwards for now and here's to the next chapter and whatever the future holds.

Also I am designing within mini collections with different colour palettes, themes and concepts.
