Fred Aldous window display for upcoming print fair 'Unwrapped' on the 19th November

 Today me and Rob took a trip to Manchester mainly to visit the Craft and Design Centre for 'dissertation research' however it turned out that most of the artists studios inside are shut on Sundays (of course they are, as they are open every other day of the week... :( ) so we had a wander around the Northern Quarter. 

Leeds Print Fair

Hello! I am excited to share that I will be sharing a stand at Leeds Print Fair this year with fellow LCA Surface Pattern students Amy Hodkin and Millie Empson. It is a two day event this year from the 5th and 6th of November, so the full bonfire weekend.
I started to print some work last week, and at the fair I will be selling some Lino printed gift wrap and cards, as well as A5 prints and A6 digitally printed cards. 
It will be lovely to see some old and new faces there, it was so fun to visit the fair last year, but I am super excited/nervous to be selling at it this year! Eeeek :)

My Top Tips for Relaxing

Most of you will know by now how hard I am finding writing a dissertation already, and there are still 12 weeks to go until my deadline... So after countless days and nights of stressing and not being able to deal with it very well, I decided  to do something about it, and I hope my tips help you in some way!

A Quick Catchup

Hello! What a week it has been...

This time last week I was celebrating my 21st birthday with my family after a day of very dull dissertation work in the studio. 

Lots of cat related presents !!
