going back to my 'roots?' i don't know anyway, what i mean to say is im just looking back at college and the work i used to do and artists and designers that would inspire me. I'm a big fan of mixed media art , anything hand made or something that looks really old. i love it , when im older i can imagine my house would just be covered in hand made things, little trinkets and paper tags dotted about the place, along with the tea pots and numerous cats i plan on having. but anyway i was looking through a few blogs on here and come across a blog named songbird who's ideas and work has pretty much made me melt inside its all so lovely. i like that home made look i feel it has a lot more sentimental value. check out le blog ,she has so many hand made crafty items , i want them all. these are some of the tags she has created, some of them based on alice in wonderland. so lush.

Trees

so for narrative and genre i chose to create a 'forest/woods' scene consisting mainly of trees.obviously. i started to find some images of trees because the drawings i was creating just looked like messy lines not trees, although i could see it no one else could. i wanted them blue too, i want them to look cold and mystical almost like its been snowing throughout the forest. i want the trees to contrast with red riding hoods outfit as she will be wearing red, i don't know i just like the idea of mystical things, having an essence of magic to it all instead of being a everyday forest. so yeah here are a few of my drawings for my forest idea.

essay blah blah blah
