PCA Graduate Work at Cornwall Design Fair 2013

Plymouth College of Art recently exhibited some graduates work at the Cornwall Design Fair at Trereife House 16th-18th August 2013.

Drake Circus Pop-Up Shop

If you missed the Summer Show at Plymouth College of Art You have a second opportunity to see all kinds of work by recently graduated art students. The art college has rented out the old Apple store in Drake Circus and filled it with different departments of work. It's open till the end of August so pop along and support the new fresh talent in Plymouth.

My degree work in the Pop-Up Shop in Drake Circus.

New Designs on Photoshop

I've never really used Photoshop before as I prefer drawing by hand. So I've spent the weekend having a little play and getting familiar with it. Tomorrow I will be collecting my colour test pieces from my friends kiln which I am using as I don't have one myself...yet. Hopefully they have came out how I imagine it.

New Ideas Means New Colour Tests

I've decided to try out using two or three colours in one piece. For a few hours today I have been making some colour tests and writing everything that I have done down so I don't get confused or find a colour that I really like, but didn't write down the percentages of colours. So line blending two colours rather than one colour with white to get a single gradient. I would like to try a light blue and light grey together. Also maybe sunset colours. But I do need to be careful not to over do it on the colour as it could ruin the piece.

New Designers 26th-29th June 2013

After the success of the Summer Show at Plymouth College of Art things could only keep going up. It was an amazing experience one that I won't forget. Many people were drawn to my sculptural pieces and wanted to touch them too which was brilliant. I now need to start emailing people back and get making as I never want to stop! I am also in the process of getting a website together too which will be more professional than a blog so keep your eyes out on here for the launch date!

Success of Plymouth College of Art Degree Show

It was an amazing atmosphere at Plymouth College of Art Degree Show last night. So many people commenting on my work and my fellow students too. It made all the stress and breakdowns worth it to hear people's views and opinions. A huge thank you to the people who turned up and hope to hear from you in the future!

Packaging

I now have got my packaging done. Using my rubber stamp to create bands of my logo around the cylinders.

Tomorrow I will need to rub out the pencil lines when the paint is 100% dry.
