Bay inspiration

This is a current photo of my bay!

Embroidered Wall Art

I went to Kiwi Trading looking for old mirrors and picture frames to transform them into a series of embroidered wall art pieces. The first thing I found when walking in was this!
It cost me £7!
I think it looks similar to the mirrors that were used on carousel rides.

Struggling...





 
I'm not getting into this project as much as I thought I would. I have a had very slow start even after having so many crits!!!!
 After every crit I have changed my mind about my concept/theme, I'm not sure whether they have helped or hindered me.
I have collected some primary sources to create some 3D paper drawings, a rose (the enchanted rose from beauty and the beast) and an apple (snow whites poisonous apple).

Fairground Fairytale

 
My two moodboards for my new project
The theme/concept for my project is fairground fairytale!
 

Self Portrait



 
Here are some pictures of my final product which has the theme/concept self portrait.

Animal Stole





 
Here are some pictures of my finished product, a seahorse animal stole.
The brief was to create an animal stole choosing an animal of my choice. I chose to go for a slightly more unusually animal rather than going for the obvious animal stole choices such as a fox, a badger etc..
