More pic's of my studio

final got in and dusted of my sketch book and got to work in my studio. Thought i would post a couple of pictures of my sketch book pages and some ideas i am working on. Really getting back into the swing of things. Paper, lines, folds, cut outs, and t-shirts are floating my boat right now and i dont know why but i am pushing forward with it to see what happens!

The magazine like promised

What do you think? I am dead excited about it.

Studio work

I have so many ideas just now that are rattling around my brain i cant seem to get them down on paper quick enough!! still having trouble getting back into the working way but i have hopefully pushed through the tough part and stuff will start to flow more.

cant wait for su blackwells exhibiton in december bet it will be really inspirational!! Also more photos of my work will be posted sortly!

another web page

Totally forgot about my work being posted on this web page http://www.creativedundee.com/2009/05/talent-show-special-duncan-of-jordanstone-degree-show-2009.html . It was just after my degree show. Very exciting stuff.

Update magazine!!!!

A magazine which is produced monthly by dundee city council who i work for has featured ME and the work i am doing with the pupils of 6 schools aorund dundee. I am mentioned on page 2 and my work was the front cover for this months issue. very exciting stuff. As well as this i was featured on creativechocolate a cute blog which is based on hand made craft items which i love!! they are all very organic and inspiring designers which appear in this blog, have a wee peak at it...very cute. http://www.chocolatecreative.blogspot.com/ the link to my bit on the page is http://chocolatecreative.blogspot.com/2009/07/nicola-brown-work.html will hopefully have images of the mag up soon!

Inspiration

These images are inspiration for me. Victor and Rolf with there fantastice ruffles and folds really inspire me. the other images are sculpture pieces that i creted early on in the year. want to try and make these things more comercial an wearable. Need to push the experimental part of my studio work more!!!!

Bits and Bobs

scrolling through some more of my photography thought i would put some up to show my style and flavour of my work. layers, close ups of some sample pieces, a drawing of my area of research.

My studio

this is my studio....an i love it! bit on the chilly side but it is my creative hub! only just managed to get in to it in the last couple of days as i have been very busy!! Just thought i would give you a sneecky peek of what i am working on and my inspiration at the minute.

Su Blackwell

She blows my mind! her work is fantastic! it is so delicate and her work just comes alive!! she has a exhibition on the 2nd of december in Edinbrugh st the scottish gallery. GO it is going to be amazing!!

My degree show work

This work is very sculptural and i like it! i am hoping that my new work can take some of these qualities on. i hope to creat something alittle more comercial. but i dont want to lose that organic quality yet i feel i want to make them more wearable.....will need to get my thinking cap on.
