Gallery magazine feature.

So this weekend I decided to come back to my homeland, the island of Guernsey for a break from the stresses of university and was told by a friend that they had seen me in a local magazine. I had completely forgotten about being 'style stalked' back around Christmas time (straight after trying to put contact lenses for about 40 mins at the opticians-that's what I'm blaming the hideous face on!) and if anyone reads this, thanks for the compliments on my legs! ;) 

I had a read through of the magazine and it's so interesting because of the fact that it is so relevant to island life and it really is amazing how many people you can recognise in the photos and also some of the writers names. 

 I thought that I would use this opportunity to devote more time to this blog and get started on some outfit posts and generally keep things more up to date. I'm hoping it will improve my writing and hopefully help me get involved with the lifestyle section of the university newspaper. 

Artwork

I thought I would start by showing you some of my recent sketchbook activity! The idea behind starting this sketchbook is so that I can draw or paint leisurely of anything I want to as opposed to the restricted projects of A-level art that I am used to. I find that doing little sketches like these can be so relaxing and I have always found the results of a couple of hours of drawing are so rewarding.

So anyway, these two pieces are a watercolour and a sketch that I have recently started although neither are completely finished as the watercolour palette I bought didn't come with a white (no idea why?!) and I am yet to replace my drawing pencils and so need to shade some of the areas better in the sketch.
