Inspired by: Tracey Emin

During lockdown, learning different ways of being creative is especially important to me, and so when I saw dotdotart had nominated me for her Tracey Emin themed Insta gallery this time around, I wanted to take myself out of that comfortable photography box that I am used to. This time using Photoshop as my main

Inspired by: Andy Warhol

A few weeks ago I did some Warhol inspired imagery – not so well

A week of self-portraiture

I say a week, I got sick of looking at my face and only did 5 or 6 days… Self-confidence, self-assurance, and admiring your own beauty is extremely difficult, and for some almost impossible. I am, unfortunately one of these people who finds it impossible to be okay with myself, which I guess is why

Week 1: Trying to be creative during lockdown

As everyone will know we are now in lockdown, and are now (I believe) on week 6 of being confined to our homes. Yes, I have been going slightly insane, and feel as though I have done everything I can possibly do, in this small flat, however, one thing that has helped me, has been

The Photographic Theorist

Starting something new

I am a month out of University, and have come to the decision that I am going to record and track my experiences of being out of University. It is common knowledge that there are struggles when leaving university, whether you are looking for creative work, or experience problematic differences of full-time work from full-time

Drawing to a Conclusion

The Empty Shop Project brief was an eye-opener to working alongside other creative professionals, although I was put with an amazing, cooperative group, I need to get used to the concept of working with several individuals, as I am very much used to being creative by myself. I was lucky enough to be put with

Presentation and Pitching

Throughout the course of this module we practiced pitching and presenting our ideas. This was in the run up to the showcase and a final presentation, and although these practices have helped it was still particularly nerve-racking knowing you will be stood in front of the rest of your peers, presenting the concept you and
