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!!!!.

  • Tulip dimensional slick fabric paint - Black - Hobby Craft - £2

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

....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
