Busszzzy Bee Me !

Yep, Busszzzy is the word, it really is. This post wont be long, More photos of what I have produced recently then writting.
I have been using my new Tulip fabric spray from Hobby Craft to produce the T-shirts below, It has definately been more effective then the Paint .
These t-shirts maybe the official tops I use for the photoshoot I plan to do for promotion, but I will still consider doing them again for the last time because It could be better If I did them again.

In Action - Part 3

Hey there,

So I have been talking for a while about a project that my sister and I have been wanting to do.

WE HAVE FINALLY STARTED!!!!

As of Sunday the 5th of Jan, we started our comic. We sat down, got all our stuff together and discussed what parts we had to play in the comic,  wghat stuff wwe were going to need obviously she writes and I draw so it was final that we were going to partner up from the beginning.  A outstanding writer and an experienced artist work perfectly together, right?! 

If you want to know the equiptment I use for the comic, look down below. 

 Purchases for comic studies

• Making comics storytelling secrets of comics, manga and graphic novels. By Scott McCloud.
• Understanding comics the Invisible art. By Scott Mc McCloud.
• The last Purchase - The walking dead Compendium one. This was not bought for studies, but it is definately a great help for studies, to see how they have draw the characters really help. 

The top images are small panel drawings I did of 'The Walking Dead' for practice. I did find it quiet challenging at first, it was difficult to get the shapes of faces, catch a nice flow of using the pens and getting the proportions  right. In saying that I have over come these problems and now are doing better at it. I still want to improve alot more and take more notice of all the acspects that relate to a comic.

In Action - Part 2

So  here I am again, In the last post I promised you guys I would show some photo updates.  I have used scrap shirts for practising.

 So here it is, tell me what you think . 

(The things I used will be down below, If curious.)

Theses are the stencils I made In the space of two weeks, I have been trying to do more Urban, edgy art recently and I think this may be it.

The first one is of a girl with headphones on, the second one is a letter stencil that I just made up, the third one is a typicall stereotype black boy from USA that plays ball, the fourth is a young urban girl with a beanie, the fifth one is an afro boy (He thinks his cool) and lastly the lollipop girl with a bit of edge and the business initials.

A very small description of what they are about or if not ill let you decide.

 

Here is just a little look of how it turned out (My first stencil!!!! wooop.)

The scalpel gives such great neat lines to the stencils, thats what I love about 

this new scalpe I bought.

 T - Shirts

 Lastly my twin was very supportive and let me photograph her in all the printed shirts I had produced.

Here is just two.

•  Fabric Paint - Hobby Craft - £2 each - X5
• Fabric Spray - Hobby Craft -£8 each - X2
• Scalpel Knife - Hobby Craft - £5
• Purple Ink Marker - Location of purchase (Any art shop) - £1

In Action - Part 1

So 'In action', many of you maybe thinking what that means, for me.
 
If you have read previous posts of mine, you would have seen me mention that I was going to start designing T-shirts with my own art printed on them (New aspect to my Business - Ways of promotions).

I have been keeping myself busy recently and really trying to put alot of things into action In terms of my business, creating things that I can actually see. Being a young entrepreneur is not easy but I find recently I have been juggling alot of things at one time. 

I  hopefully want to start selling theses T-shirts in the spring near summer, this is my goal. Its going well at the moment, I have been experiementing with many paints, this wasn't as neat as I wanted it to be so then I moved on to the Tulip spray, and It's alot easier to apply onto the fabric im using. I stuck with the permanent grape and sapphire, I love the colours on the white vests. The work perfectly but in the near future I still want an actually spray can eventually.
One thing Im glad about is that I have the best supoort system around me, My twin is constantly offering her survices to help me, my big sis always makes sure my head is on straight and never lets me fall, always there to pick me back up. lastly my mother is my inspirating and is always there to give great advice. What more could I ask for...???? I dont need anything else. Thanks to my beautiful queen and princesses.


 Photo of my twin helping to do a customised Black  T- shirt: 21 On the back and sun glasses chick on the front.


I have actually been using the Tulip Matt tubbs for my practice and the tubbs look like the ones in the above photo. The paint is not too bad and dry pretty fast. The one thing I dont like about the white one is it does not look the same dry and wet. Its really light and doesnt look neat enough for me. So yes I have stopped using those, only if I have to do a practice shirt, I will use it to save the good stuff. 





Hobby craft is my store, I love it. It makes me spend all my money, but its all worth it in the end. Thumbs up to all the Hobby craft stores out there!!!!.
...And just in case you was wondering what I have been using, The information is below
What I have been using:

• Fiskars Cutting mat - Hobby Craft - £5 << I think, Can't rememeber exactly, but it's close.
• Tulip dimensional slick fabric paint - Black - Hobby Craft - £2
• Tulip dimensional slick fabric paint - Blazin  Blue - Hobby Craft - £2
• Tulip dimensional slick fabric paint - White - Hobby Craft - £2
• Tulip permanent  fabric spray - Sapphire - Hobby Craft - £8
• Tulip permanent  fabric spray - Grape  - Hobby Craft - £8
• Scalpel Knife - Hobby Craft - £5 << Also not sure, but close. 

Look out for the next post,  it will most definately be packed with photos of what I have done so far and more.

"ISN'T LIFE JUST AMAZING WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND DO’S AND THE DON'TS

THE IF’S THE WHY’S AND MAYBE’S.

CAN I SHARE THIS THOUGHT WITH YOU? WHILST AT HOME AND WATCHING THE

RAIN HIT THE WINDOW PANE, I BEGAN TO THINK OF HOW OFTEN PER DAY

THAT WE LIE TO OURSELVES, THE WAY IN WHICH WE TALK OURSELVES  INTO

CHOOSING WHAT FEELS GOOD OVER WHAT IS ACTUALLY GOOD FOR US.

THEN WE SAY WE HAVE NO CHOICES, THAT WE ARE EMBEDDED WITH BAD LUCK, AND HOW NOTHING EVER GOES RIGHT FOR US, AND  WE WISH THINGS COULD CHANGE AND FOR ONCE IN OUR LITTLE LIVES  WE CAN THEN BE HAPPY. WOOW WOOW WOOW!!! STOP RIGHT THERE, DON'T SAY ANOTHER WORD.

NEXT TIME YOU ARE BLESSED WITH A QUIET MOMENT WHETHER IT IS RAINING OR NOT EMBRACE THAT MOMENT AND ENJOY YOU.

WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WHAT EVER YOU ‘DO’ IN LIFE AFFECTS OTHERS, EVEN IF IT IS NOT DIRECTLY DONE FOR THEM, DON’T LET YOURSELF DOWN JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE UNABLE TO GRASP THE CONCEPT OF YOUR JOURNEY.

‘IF’ YOU STICK WITH ONLY WHAT YOU KNOW YOUR LIFE'S JOURNEY WILL NEVER TAKE FLIGHT, SO YOU NEED TO KNOW ‘WHY’ YOU MUST EMBARK ON THIS TREACHEROUS ROUTE WHEN YOU DO NOT EVEN KNOW WHAT THE OUTCOME WILL BE.

IF YOU DO NOT TAKE THAT CHANCE THEN ‘MAYBE' YOU WILL NEVER KNOW WHAT A WONDERFUL HUMAN BEING YOU COULD HAVE TURNED OUT TO BE, FOR WE ARE FOREVER GROWING.

WOW I HAVE BEEN SO LONG WRITING THIS I DID NOT EVEN NOTICE IT HAD STOPPED RAINING.

EMBRACE THIS YEAR GET INTO ACTION AND DO WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE WITH NO EXCUSES  ‘WHY’ BECAUSE TIME PASSES BY."

PEACE

New Years - Change Of Heart...?

This is going to be short..

Im back after the new year and Im feeling ready to take yet another big step. 

As it was coming closer to christmas and the new year all I could think about was that christmas table and the food it was going to be packed with, but what I was thinking about the most as the time came closer to the new year was...

What things would I do?

What new people would I encounter?

How would I make my art brand more known?

When would I get involved with more things that are going to get me out there?

How could I change my lifestyle?

and most importantly, How would I change my WHOLE mind set?

There was clearly alot of things on my mind, I know. 

I will embrace this year like no other, pursue my dreams and hopefully inspire others. 

Thanks for passing by again.
