CUSTOMISATION

Alexander McQueen

 In my spare time I enjoy customising and personalising old bags and shoes, the bag below was inspired by the Alexander McQueen Studded bag.

BAG

I stripped the material from the bag then painted and embellished with gold spray painted lentils (yes the ones you eat)

My creation before I applied a coating of Epoxy Resin

SHOES

Shoe inspiration

 Using tribal patterns and tattoos as my inspiration i painted my design onto an old pair of wedges again using lentils for detail

CAD - computer aided designs & illustrations

Using some hand drawn illustrations with photoshop, I changed the colours, composition and background to create an effective piece of work which I feel creates the correct mood for the two figures

Fashion Illustrations

Since I was about eleven, fashion illustrations have always been a big interest of mine, On the  Fashion Concepts &Communications course we are now looking into Illustrators and CAD (Computer Aided Design) Fashion Illustrations. We will create some of our own from using Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator

Below are several of my recent drawings done in my free time, I'm very much influenced by Models, catwalks and striking poses. Nudity is something i love to draw because its so raw and natural, Some people get uptight about seeing 'too' much flesh but i see this as art.
