Here it is. The end of summer. I'm back at school now but this is everything I did in my last week of holiday.. I went to Trafalgar Square with some friends one evening on the new modern/old buses where you can jump onto the back while it's moving, which is uber cool.. I also edited some photos from Italy that I took of water and clouds and cactuses, and took some outfit photos because I realised I haven't posted any for aaaages..

Then just before I started packing to go to France I remembered my school set me art homework so I has to do some pages in my sketchbook tres rapide, so I took photos of them too:

I'm still taking submissions for my zine so please contact me if you're interested? 

submit to my zine?

Late last night I found myself trawling many different blogs to find people with zines that accepted submissions because I wanted to be part of one, which made me realise that I'd be much happier and less sleep deprived if I just made my own. 
So partly because I'm lazy and partly because I'd love to see some other people's work, I'm asking anyone who cares to send me your art, photography, writing, playlists and anything else you want to share, so I can put it in my first zine.

The theme is going to be 'Growing Up' so if you want to submit anything vaguely related to that word then go ahead and email me at: georgie.wilsonn@gmail.com 

Put 'submission' in the email's title and write your name or whatever few words you might want to include with the work in the message. 
There isn't really a deadline for sending me stuff because this will be a relaxed project but I hope some of you send me something to include, thanks xo

With the help of my friend Lily (model), I recently took these photos for my art project based on the Space Age and alter-egos. Theyre inspired by Bowie/Ziggy Stardust and all that kind of thaang- They've all been edited now and guys: dnt h8 appreci8- coz dat silver paint took hours to take off properly.. Here's my inspiration, too:

Bow down to Bowiee

inspiration from tumblr:

 

Here's my inspiration playlist, sorry I can't link it to anything but you can youtube all these songs if you want to hear them:

 

FLOAT FOREVER

Thought I'd share some of my doodles and collages that are supposed to be inspiring me for my art project in school that I've just started.. no luck so far on that front.

Anyway recently I've been listening to Swim Deep and Peace because they're really summery bands and I can't wait for summer. I really really reaaally want to go to Latitude 2013, because last year I went with some people and it was amazing, but this year Swim Deep and altJ will be there (not to mention a ton of other great bands) so I've got to go.

My favourite Peace songs at the moment are Float Forever and California Daze (although I have to admit they both sound so similar, I dont even know how the band got away with it) and Honey by Swim Deep is perfect. The music video for Honey is also so cute, and the girl in it is beaautiful, and she gets to dance around and spray paint at the band, so I'm super jealous of her.

 

SWIM DEEP : seriously, look how cool they are, I'd happily get any of these pictures on a tshirt..and look at all that hair. 

 PEACE: I'm seeing a hair trend here..

british weather and preparation for summer

My new thing to do when I'm bored is just make up outfits I'm going to wear in summer, so  here's one of them, with me looking deathly pale as usual *sigh*:

Clothes: t shirt from Latitude festival 2012, skirt is Rachel Riley vintage, shoes are white canvas converse.

Over in England, if you don't live here, you won't know that we have all become grey and ill from lack of sunlight, and recently we have finally actually got some sun, so everyone is madly celebrating and going outside in shorts when its only about 12 degrees. Therefore I made a playlist to celebrate the occasion, because we're very serious about weather here in Britain.

So a thing you may have learned about me by now, is that I spend WAYY to much time on the computer. Im serious guys I literally never leave my room, and whenever I look away from my computer I get seriously dizzy and little stars pop up in front of my eyes. Okay maybe it's not that serious, but to sever the close relationship I have with my computer, I decided to do more drawing/writing on paper.. 

I drew this, based on the anonymous poem 'Tea for Two' because I think it pretty much sums up Britain, what with the tea, and the rain *sigh*.
