PPD.

Ever since we first got given this brief at the beginning of the year, I've been dreading it. However, now it's come to it, I've realised I actually have a lot to talk about. I've come such a long way in such a short space of time, and if I'm honest, I'm quite proud of what I've achieved. By this, I don't mean the work I've produced, but the skills I've developed. God knows I've had my ups and downs, and I've made a hell of a lot of mistakes and will probably make a lot more, but I've learnt from them and moved on.

Looking back at my work, I only see my faults and think of ways I could of improved it, so it's been quite hard for me to pick out pieces of work to put in my portfolio/presentation. Anyway, here's some of the work I've chosen to include.

Pure poster
First attempt at illustration

How to.. Hollow an egg - Final resolution/s

The piece I am most proud of.

Dance Made.


Packaging design.

Even though I've never really experimented with packaging much before, I do really love it and am waiting for the opportunity to have a go.

This is the work of Janine Rewell, I really love all the different shapes she's incorporated into her designs, and her use of colour. Really nice.

I really do need to get back into drawing.
