Stop Motion

for my not so amazing ABC stop motion :D
For one of our drawing assignments we had to go around where i live and do rubbings of objects or use found objects to create a typeface.  I just made rubbings from manhole covers and made this to show the letters.  It's nothing fantastic but I thought I would share :)

Very Long Update :D

 Hi Madame! :)  Another late update of sorts here :D  I've been quite busy getting ready for my next project this week and working on some assignments.  I thought I would give you a bit of an update on what I've been doing starting from the latest and going up to the most recent :)

These six images are from my last project for school where I made collages focusing on the theme mechanical vs. botanical and we had to incorporate "experimentation" into them. art school sheesh

These images are from an assignment we had last this past Monday to go out and take stranger pictures of people who were waiting.  I went with a couple of people from my group and it was quite fun but i was tired so it wasn't that great haha :D

These pictures are from another portrait assignment we had to take pictures of one of the other people in our group in different emotions for our sketchbooks.  This is Aylin who is also one of my flat mates.  She is swiss and very very funny :D

This thing was something I found on Friday when I wandered around London looking at art galleries.  I ended up in a super super rich area and I have no idea how I even got there :D  This gallery was full of animals covered in diamonds and jewels.  It was quite bizarre :D  And then I got into this Palladium of Art and Design show for free with my student card!  Student cards have so much power over here haha

That's my update for now :)  Today I spent with David waiting in line for him to get the new iphone 4s for an hour and a half! sheesh!  but they handed out snacks to people waiting and once you got inside they gave you starbucks gift cards for waiting and it only took 5 minutes to set up the phone so it was quite good overall :)

Hi Madame! Sorry it's been a while since my last update! I've been super busy working on my project lately.  I will upload pictures of that soon hopefully :)  These are pictures from this past weekend.  David and I went to Saint Paul's hoping to climb to the top for pictures but it cost £30 to get in! So we just took pictures from the outside and went to the Tate right across the millennium bridge.  That was alright but art museums always get a bit boring after a while :D  And then we had tiramisu for dessert at dinner :D Hopefully I will have more pictures for you soon and David and I are going to Malta in a couple of weeks for a holiday and to work on my next project! So fingers crossed the weather stays nice there :D

Saint Paul's

 David pretending to be artsy in an empty room at the Tate :D

and then being not so serious :D

there was a mirror on the wall as a piece of art?? It was quite strange :D

this one was really cool because it was like an upside down inside out staircase and it took up the whole room.  

I really liked the white walls in here :D

Roy Lichtenstein- this was probably the most interesting thing at the Tate I think

Sunset near Blackfriar's Bridge 

Sunset behind the oxo tower :)

This is just a crappy phone picture but it's the only one i've managed to get of the two of us since i've been here haha :D

Here are a couple of pictures from my first project I've been working on.  I have to get 4 more photos done by this weekend! ahhh! :D

this one looks really green for some reason so it's not that accurate on the colors.  I wanted to have apples in the tree but I couldn't find any so I'm adding crab apples on top of the picture to finish it off :D

This Weekend :D

So here is the other update from this past weekend :D  We went to something called the Thames festival and there were loads of food stalls and artists and shops set up so it was really fun.  If you want any of the pictures to print out let me know :D

My favorite bubble picture of the day! These bubbles were huge probably around 6 feet long sometimes!

I love the little kids' hands in the bubble in this one! :)

David drinking coconut water which was very coconutty :D and surprisingly cold 

Some very large meringues!  I got one and it was quite tasty but not very strawberry-y :D

some tarts from the same place

This fudge looked so good but it was so expensive! :D

Last Weekend

Hi Madame! Just thought I would put up a few pictures from last weekend.  And I will update it again later but for now I'm off to school! :)

We went to the Breakfast Club last Saturday for breakfast and this is what David had. Bacon and Banana French toast! :D

We went to Notting Hill and had a look at the antique market and then stopped at a pub for a bit because there were too many people haha.  But this is really the only thing I like and it's the most girly thing ever because it's just pink and bubbly :D

 David eating a coconut cookie.  I have some seriously more funny ones but this one is funny enough :D

 The London Eye just from a weird angle and all white looking.

I should have up some more pictures from this weekend by tomorrow hopefully!  I will let you know :) And there are pictures of french pastries and fudge in that batch :D

First Day Today!

I feel so artsy in my red jeans :D Enjoy your Labor Day!
