15 day drawing challenge.

I have recently started a university project called '100 Heads', were you show a representation of a human in any way you can think of. Whether that be drawing, painting, collage, or digitally produced. I am really enjoying doing it as it is giving me new ideas and inspiration to do things i haven't done before.

Book Review

I Today finished this book called "If you find me" by Emily Murdoch and i actually really enjoyed it. It was one of those books that once i got into i read majority of the book in two days. I initially couldn't get into it but as i read more of the book at one time i became immersed. Without giving to much away its about two sisters who have been living in there woods with there meth addicted mother. There 'Mama' leaves for weeks at a time and they are left to fend for themselves, that is until there dad comes to take them home after over 10 years. All seems well until Carey struggles with keeping a secret of what happened in the woods. Because 'What happens in the woods, stays in the woods'. But this time it isn't the case. 

Nail design. 

These are the nail designs i am sporting this week. I love painting my nails and trying different patterns but this time i tried something abit different. I used models own for the pink base colour. The black is rimmel, the while is also models own and the silver is from Avon. I used a hair grip to add the dots, which took ages to do 10 nails but i really love the nail on a whole. Hopefully they last the whole week. 

Blue hair dont care.

I recently dyed my hair blue. I have had my hair dip dyed for about a year and i love experementing with colours. The top of my hair is a cheatnut brown and works well with quite alot of colours. I started off with blonde on the tips, usually known as ombre which ive had for most of the year and a colour i and the most comftable with. In October i dip dyed my hair a vibrant pink/red, i really loved the brightness and kept this colour choice for  about 2 months buf changed back to blonde because it faded quite alot. Last week i was feeling a little down and i always find that changing something always makes me feel better, so i opted for blue. Its extremly bright and because of the previous tones of blonde i had before the blue has so many tones of blue and turquoise which i love. I will probably keep this colour for 6-8 weeks but so far i am loving it, especially in different plats and braids.  

'The fault in our stars'

Like most of the internet i am obsessed with 'the fault in our stars'. I first read the book as soon as it was released in 2012t. When reading the book i cried more than ive ever cried whilst reading any other book. I think the story is incredibly beautiful and even though it is essentially about cancer and dying, the thing i took away from it is the whole infinity thing. That everyone can have there own infinity no matter how long it last's.

When it was released that there would be a film i was over the moon, but also worried that like in previous cases, the film wouldnt do the book the justice it deseverd. I have seen the film twice and it did not dissapoint, infact it was phenomenal and stayed so true to the book, Shailene Woodley  and Ansel Elgort were the perfect Hazel and Gus. As soon as i came back from the cinema i started reading the book again, well listening. I bought the audiobook which ive never really got into before but this one really captivated me. All in all i f****ng live this story, it makes me so emotional but also thankful for what i have.

Wolfia Finished

I finally finished my wolf drawing after about 6 weeks working on it. Because of the intricate detail i struggled doing alot at one time. Overall i really liked how it turned out, the idea i had in my head is quite different with alot less blocked black but i think the black contrasts well with the small pattern.
