Surface Design Competition

This month i am taking part in a surface design competition for a famous ceramics company. There are only a handful of people from my university who have put ourselves forward but i know there is so much talent and i would be proud if one of us won!! Of course i would love to win - but it would just be awesome to have this in my portfolio.

We are currently in the photoshop stage. The competition only requires you to submit a jpeg, but we are going to create ceramic transfers and create our own actual plates/bowls/mugs which i think is awesome. You can also create complimentary accessories, so thankyou to everyone who took my recent survey, as i have chosen the three top accessories. These will be printed and made. Again, not to be submitted but looking great in the portfolio, and the tutors are happy to mark it as park of our practical degree work.

Here are my initial designs. you must stay true to your design values so of course im using ink lines that arnt quite straight,and offset colour! I havnt included the entire design as we havnt submitted them yet - you never know who is googling!

Mug & Small plate from my favourite collection so far.

colours!

End of Year University Presentations

I have not blogged in SO LONG! I'll do a few summary posts then try to keep up over summer. I was hoping to blog at the end of every week but so much is going on with my creativity and crafts that i might have to do it every other day, to keep me sane and to keep me organised!! 

Here are my end of year presentations for Glass, Ceramics, Embroidery and Metal. Everything is set up in our own studio spaces. I dont know what my grade is yet because my tutor hasnt emailed me. Im too busy to care right now!! But i liked my presentations.. so here you are :)
