A6 Development On the left are my initial ideas for the A6 Project and a plan and potential layouts. On the right are two collages which I created to experiment with colour combinations, composition and placement of faces before beginning my practical experimentation. 

Some of my A6 postcards These were the final postcards that I decided to take forward for my exhibition, selected from the initial 25. These are also those that are displayed in my final piece (magazine).  I chose the images to reflect the breadth of experimentation undertaken, including my own interventions with a variety of materials as well as pure collage.  I wanted to deconstruct the original layouts, but still make sure the new images created were recognisably Vogue covers.

Favourite A6 Postcards I have selected these three as my favourite postcards from the A6 Project. These three images are very different in composition, colour, and texture, however they all still maintain the iconic Vogue style that has progressed throughout the years. My favourite postcard form the entire A6 Project is in the middle. The colour combinations have made a soft background for the graphic image I have layered on top of the paint, all the elements have worked well together to create a unique and interesting layout which I loved creating. This image is the last postcard I made, and I think that through making the twenty five postcards, I learned what composition worked well for the collages I was layering over the Vogue covers. 

3D Week: Utopia/Dystopia (4 day project) On the left is some of my research and ideas development that led to my 3D maquette (on the right).  This was the first project on my foundation course, where I created a floor plan for my idea of a shopping centre made from storage containers.  After researching minimalist art and brutalist architecture, I wanted to create work with simplified forms, with idealistic utopian aims. 

Mono-printing Above are some examples of my mono-prints from the two day Graphic Design workshop in college. On the left is the 'normal' mono print, and on the right is the paper which was used to roll on. I chose to include this in my sketchbook as it gave a different texture and pattern compared to the normal mono prints I created. 

Text from Ephemeral week These images are from a one week project within the discipline of Fashion and Textiles. The project had the theme of 'Ephemeral'. We were instructed to research sustainable fashion and what fashion is now. I created a fashion poster with graphic writing in order to display the importance of sustainable fashion today. On the right is another poster I created based on the 'Ephemeral' theme. I took the colours inspired by Autumn, which is ephemeral because seasons are short lived and are ever-changing.
