The True Cost of Oil

Everyone should take the time to watch this video... it's mind blowing and so informing. We really are killing our habitats and earth for the sake of making money.

Respect the planet dude - and say no to this kind of destruction - even if you don't think you care about global warming - i bet you didn't expect effects on this scale....and we as human beings are inflicting this on ourselves.

VOGUE ITALIA TALENTS - featured my Pre-Collection

Here is my pre-collection featured on Vogue Italia Talents.

A DRAWING WORKSHOP - with tutor Niall Laverty.

I have done this workshop for the past two days and found it really hard to loosen up - but I think I found my feet in the last session. Really enjoyed it and hope to include this kind of thing in my work again!
I love continuous line drawing and I never knew.
Any feedback welcome!

George Harrison by Martin Scorcese


Take a look at this film. I have never known that much about George Harrison before this film and its real eye opener.
Whether it is accurate or not is up to people closest to him but it portrayed him as a guy with a big heart and and lust for more creativity and friendship. The one thing that struck me in it was his wife's acknowledgement that he had a way of enhancing and perfecting moments.

For some reason this has really stuck with me.

Take a look; you won't be disappointed.
