First blog!

As part of my HND Textiles course I am required to keep a blog .... so here I am! 

I'm hoping to talk about my college experiences and challenges and to put up the occasional photo or two. Term started four weeks ago and I'm really enjoying all the tutorials and projects. However, at the moment there seems to be so much to do and my biggest challenge is keeping up to date with all the research that's required for each of the seven different tutor sessions. 

In these four weeks all my sketchbooks are starting to shape up and I've managed to get quite organised ...... meaning that my projects are no longer all blurring into each other, I know what I'm doing now!  The research is enjoyable and some of the artists work I've been looking at is truly amazing. Very inspirational.

So, it's a strange life now ......... I've been drawing all my fruit and vegetables before cooking and eating them, I've been painting with strange objects such as copper pipe elbows and knitting needles, and I've been wandering around derelict houses with a hammer and a cheese grater in order to distress fabric! 

I'll end on that note now :)
