Rollerskate ....


I absolutely love this lucozade advert. When I first saw this advert the product it was advertising isn't what I expected. But it's memorable so it works brilliantly. The bight sporty clothing is perfectly put together, the music gives it a summer vibe, and the imagery is a visual feast.
A perfect summers day ...

Inge Jacobsen.





Inge Jacobsen creates images using hand-stitch. I love the texture and depth it gives the images.
It has reminded me of some work i did in my first year of college, I'm going to hunt them out so i can put them on here. I really like this style of illustration and would like to try experimenting with it.

Tom Bagshaw.




Today I came across the work of Tom Bagshaw. I was drawn to it instantly, I love the fine art style he uses. Tom Bagshaw creates his images digitally. I think the balance of his traditional yet edge work is perfect. I also really like the mysterious, dark mood that is shown in a lot of his work.

Dwayne Michael Carter Jr ... By Abilouise


I drew Lil Wayne from a photo Terry Richardson took for GQ. I had to take a photo of my drawing because the scanner wouldn't pick it up properly, unfortunately the photo isn't very good quality. I have only drawn a section of the photo. I created this drawing using fine liner, pencil and Biro.




Gemma Ward ... By Abilouise



Gemma Ward is one of my favourite people to draw. I love the proportions of her face.
I'm really frustrated that i can't remember which photographer took the photo, I've drawn from, for some strange reason i haven't written it down. I created this image using fine liners and added colour with pencils.

A Royal Wedding ...


As soon as I saw Kate Middleton's dress I fell in love. The dress was designed by Alexander McQueen designer Sarah Burton. The dress reminded me of the dress Grace Kelly wore on her wedding day. The 1950's is one of my favourite era's, I think Sarah Burton has created a dress with a beautiful, modern, 1950's influence.

Hello Sunshine ...




Summer, my favourite time of year ....
This year I thought I'd kick my summer activities off with a BBQ, with some of my closest friends.
We had a lovely day soaking up the sun and chatting ...
Can't wait to get outside and do more with my wonderful friends.
