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.

BRING ON SUMMER !!

So Its been a little while since I have updated you guys on what Im doing. Ive decided that I wanted to do a photoshoot. This photoshoot would be with four others and my amazing big sis that has agreed that she is going to be the camera girl.. wooohooo! 

So heres the thing I was going to do this photoshoot around this time, before christmas but the more I thought about it and the more I spoke to big sis and twin, I realised that maybe right now wouldnt be the best time because Its cold out side and it isnt getting any warmer for now.. so.... 

I am going to do the photoshoot Mid Spring, early summer .. is that not the best time... yess!.
So now Im going to do the photoshoot then. Now I want to tell you guys about the theme of the photoshoot because to me its a pretty big deal. 

The idea is my art... on clothes. Im so excited because ive never seen my art on clothes before apart from on canvas or paper. The first three images is the few I have in mind right now because one they are all complete and two because I feel they also have a nice urban  feel to them. On T-shirts, vests, jeans  and beanies .. so look out for pictures from the photoshoot mid year next year. 





 ...and also before I sign off this image below is still not finished but its definately a work in progress. So look out for this on tops too. I really hope you guys like it when its done. Be sure to queery about them in the summer!! 



Thank you all 
Serayah

....And Another 1

 I want to keep this post short and sweet. I feel like this 
is another step forward for me and I really want to share it with you guys. <3

So today was mums workshop, it was truly amazing 'women impowering women' - Lights Camera Action. I always learn something new whenever I attend the workshops and I am blessed to have a mum like mine. The workshops always help me if Im ever doubting myself, feeling like something isnt going wrong, just any problems in general. I love the workshops, its great to know that every last saturday of the month I always have something to fall back. It always reminds me that my future is in my hands. Thank you mum.  <3

 I sold this piece for £45 (Acrylic - Medium) today!! Thank you for all the support that everyone has given me for the past couple years. I am blessed to have my family and the handfull of friends that are true to my talent and will be by my side every step of the way.

Thank you again

The 'Express yourself exhibition' experience - Success!!

                      I'm so happy right now and I just have to share this with you guys.

I put on my first Exhibition last Thursday (31st), I can truly say that it was one of the best feelings I have ever had.I have wanted to do my very own exhibition for a while now and not going to uni, a few times I have doubted my self just because nowadays people make you believe you can not go anywhere if you dont study at uni, which is not true.

I worked so hard to put on this exhibition last month, the preparation, business aspect and getting people together to view my art. Preparation was very hard but I had the support of my family around me consistently. It makes me feel so blesseed to have such a talented, supportive, motivsted family because it just makes me strive for more in life. Being a 18 year old in this society now.. I feel I have achieve so much off my own back. (Thank you to those of you who have helped me follow my dreams of being a successful artist.)

Its so hard to please people when it comes to art especially if they havent got the eye for it. Not much people know what art is all about, what certain styles portray or how to read it. Which is understandable because when I was in school I didnt understand certain things about art. I want to bring a different style to the industry. <3 


To be honest, I was overwhelmed  but so glad when people wanted to buy art off me. I successfully sold 6 pieces at my exhibition. I did a lot of research and it said on one site that you should sell your art for what you think it is worth, which I think I did.
Algaphobia
Rhythm and Blues

Red Velvet










I appreciate all the people that came along to view not only my art but the passion I have for what I do. 
I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Thank you again

Get Creative!



I am so glad that I can share my experiences and plans with you guys. I’m actually planning to start my own business and id just like to share some of my thought process with you. 

Quite a while back I starting thinking of different ways I could promote my own art work. I am currently working on some things like;  My own tattoo sketch book, mini exhibition, working with young kids by getting sponsors, clothing line and many more. I am so ready to get my business up and running because I don’t feel like art s promoted in the right way, plus it’s not promoted enough to show the appreciation. I feel like when I start up this business I can really show people on thee outside what art really is. One of my main goals on this journey is to work with kids. I would love to show younger kids that they can also be creative because everyone has a creative side of them.

I have looked into funding for individuals, funding for people who are trying to work on their own businesses, and I would love to do either so i have more opportunities as an artist to show you guys the thing I love doing the most. 

I will be doing a mini exhibition, hopefully very soon after I leave sixth-form. All my art work, I hope it will inspire many young people of my generation and others to come. I would love it if you guys could join me when I plan the date. This hopefully is the first step to my successful future.

Thank you for reading. Comment and share it with your friends and family. :)
Peace xo
