Last week I helped out my friends Pip Johnson and Laura 'Spesh' jacobs who are both on thier second year of photography with a photoshoot, it was a very enjoyable experience and I had a great time taking part and putting my input into thier work. I screenshotted a few shots from Pip's shoot:

The End Result

I was offered the opportunity to produce this mural through facebook believe it or not,

 my best friend's dad asked me to paint a "Tim Burton esk" tree in his newly referbed kitchen.

 I was very apprihensive at first and after drawing up some designs and doing a bit of online reasearch I felt comfortable to start work.

 I began by simply sketching a rough outline using pencil pen and a trusty graphite stick, I knew this was only a rough outline so concentrated more on filling the space.

 

I then started to fill as much negative space as i could using a thick brush ( which I ended up killing) The paint I was using was oily and very very potent but gave the right finish in contrst with the enamle white.

 

I continused to fill as much of the area as possible untill i decided to call it a day, at this stage I was happy with the progress id made yet knew I had a lot left to do.

By the end of the second day I had strengthened the line work on the branches and given my first coat of patch up white.

I was now within reach of finishing by the end of the third day and just needed to finish the job by recoating and twaeking the edges.

I am overjoyed with my edn result and found this a very beneifical experience, Id like to give great thanks to Roger for giving me this opportunity, endless cups of tea and the support I needed. Thankyou very much

Redscale

A series of photos of my hometowns and the people around me.
The film is a lomography redscale ISO100 which brings a real warmth to a shot in the right light conditions. For some of the shots i combined this with coloured filters.

I think i may invest in some more..
