'TOSS OFF'

On 9th March I played a big part in the organisation and hosting of a pancake themed fund raiser event, ‘TOSS OFF’, for my 3rd Year Final Illustration show. The night was a great success, we packed out The Winchester (Bournemouth) and managed to raise a very respectable sum. The event involved a pancake tossing competition (hence the name), pancake eating, a pancake themed burlesque act, various DJ’s, an art sale, a spray on tattoo stand and vodka jelly shots!

The end of year AUCB Illustration show ‘BRINK’ will be held at Free Range, Brick Lane, London 7th-11th July 2011: http://www.free-range.org.uk/

BA YR3: 'TOADS'

I have been working from the poem 'Toads' by Philip Larkin, the general theme running throughout it being about how society represses individuals and the expectations in place which cannot be broken so those living in such a society can never truely be free. I have taken these ideas as inspiration for imagery.
These are also some of the first images in which I have begun to experiment with combining my two styles of working:
