Endless Studio response to my invite

I'm very happy to have had a response from my sent off concertinas! I will be visiting their studio next Friday and want to prepare questions, and try and either ask for a placement there or tips/links to where I could get a placement for this year. Taking examples of projects I am working on will also allow me to have professional feedback on the projects themselves and different perspectives. Out of the 3 studios I sent these to, Endless City have a very exciting style that I enjoy working in so am excited to speak to them all and see how they make their work!

They also have links to charities and work with a lot of events which will be beneficial to learn about.

Making a website task

I chose to use Persona as my starting template and platform to create my website for the task. Amazing layout options, really unique and exciting.

After some issues with saving, I added links added my details and my work in a larger than life form which is appropriate for my design style and exciting to do with this template.

I get to saving my Persona and see I have to upgrade and pay to make it public. I know this is important as professional visibility to potential employers.

I have my behance/instagram/linkedin all started up and in the future when I have many established large polished projects to add and a name for myself, I would definetley revisit my Persona and begin to pay for it.

In the future when I see myself as a polished professional with money to spare I definetly will!

Exhibition piece

After signing up to the Girl Gang Leeds mailing list, determined to make it in to an exhibition, they straight away sent out call for submissions for their exhibition 'Reclaiming Pink at Wharf Chambers'.

The Brief:

GIRLS MAKE ART 2: RECLAIM PINK

AN ALL-PINK ART EXHIBITION CELEBRATING IDENTITY

Being feminine is nothing to be ashamed of.

We want to challenge gender roles and stereotypes surrounding the idea of “feminine” - why feminine traits can seem silly and dismissive or somehow less valuable than stereotypically male traits. Why should women adopt masculine characteristics in order to be respected? Who decided what characteristics are masculine and feminine anyway?!

Our exhibition is not only a celebration of the feminine, but a celebration of being exactly who you want to be.

It was amazing to be part of such a feminist exhibition which cover a lot of underlying issues with being a female still. The exhibition was very much my kind of style and it felt great for the team to know and enjoy my work. It was a confidence boost to keep pushing my own personal illustration work and keep my passion for design and development in illustration/idea skills.
