Tattooing

I have been wanting for so long to do tattooing and after purchasing a kit i have finally had a go on not only melons and pig skin but myself wooo, my first attempt was extremely bad because i didn't have the amp cranked up high enough to do it properly but the second time worked out ok, Hurt like hell but its not bad for a freehand first attempt, I have a few volunteers mad enough to let me use for pin cushions that i can't wait to get going properly.

Me

I was bored last night so took out my pencil and decided to sketch myself,

Tshirt Design

I was asked to do a few T-shirt designs for a new Dance organisation which has unfortunately disappeared
and now i am left with a design i really like but don't know what to do with! The idea behind the design was Listen to your Heart.

Its been a while

I have really neglected my blogging lately which i am not to happy about, My mac has recently passed away :( but something good can come from something sad in my case a shiny new Macbook pro! i can now begin blogging again and keeping up to date with whats happening in my life at the moment, I am recently in the process of setting up my own art school within Manchester doing arts and crafts with children living in deprived areas, i am in talks with various venues and a possible link to a local charity based community centre its all exciting stuff so fingers crossed this will be a success :)

illustrations

Just a few illustrations i have drawn when bored and also a few from the easter cards i made for the residents in Leighton house retirement home.

Just Married boots

On my wedding day i wanted something quirky and after trawling through the internet i came up with the idea to make myself a pair of Just Married Ugg style boots, unfortunately i didn't get chance to make them myself so my lovely bridesmaid stacey did them for me, i have received so many enquiries about where i purchased these from and people saying they loved the quirkiness of it so i have decided to start making and selling them myself as you can not buy them in shops anywhere, so if you are interested in a pair just email me and i will be glad to help you out.

We finally did it

Well it has taken us 19 years and 2 days to finally tie the knot and it was definitely worth the wait i had the most perfect day and couldn't have been any happier, we only had one set back which was a huge disaster with the cake falling apart and turning into mush but its just another part of the story we will be able to tell people about our super windy perfect wedding day.

I made all the center pieces and table numbers plus everything else needed for the day i will upload some more images of individual pieces i made soon
