Raw Milk

Filling a new sketchbook that my gr8 pal gave me for secret santa!!

I went on a holiday trip to the British Museum and drew the Parthenon one day, and watched a great documentary about the Clash which aired on New Years day about 1977 and their doomed generation and London punk it was all v cool //

I have been wandering around doing chores for my family and drawing and thinking about going back to school, listening to The Clash, Parquet Courts, FKA Twigs <33, and early Cure albums. And met Ferris from the Horrors band outside Shepherds in prim hill and he was all in black and weird and mysterious //

I drew the last one on a magic lone walk in Regents Park as the sun set over London n it was great, I listened to some Bob Dylan and forgot it was Christmas Eve //

Lazy Oaf space oddity dress 10/10 despite the fact it rips everytime i wear it lol 

A humorous Stevie Smith poem

Drugs made Pauline vague.

She sat one day at the breakfast table

Fingering in a baffled way

The fronds of the maidenhair plant.

Was it the salt you were looking for dear?

said Dulcie, exchanging a glance with the Brigadier.

Chuff chuff Pauline what's the matter?

Said the Brigadier to his wife

Who did not even notice

What a handsome couple they made. 

have fun going back to school kids n get some sleep

Final Art Piece: Glitter Queen

   

These are a few of the photos I put in my sketchbook for my art final piece at the start of the month, inspired by 1970s glamour, Ziggy Stardust, Petra Collins' and Miles Aldridge's photography. My lovely friend Rachel modelled for me, and kindly let me completely improvise and do her face paint as a glittery alien queen. I used projections and coloured acetate over the lens to manipulate the colour and lighting. 

Praise the 99p store for all my sparkly props and tinsel <3 <3
