#28PortraitChallenge, Part 1

I hadn't planned on doing any art challenges this month, but when djamilaknopf posted this, I felt that it was a challenge I could do. Especially as my main art consists of portraits already... I probably will not finish the challenge entirely due to university commitments, so I am just aiming for a minimum of…

[Chatter] Let’s talk art~

Since last March, I’ve been drawing like crazy - my instagram is proof enough of how active I’ve been lately. I’ve been posting more digital work than ever. My artistic output in total during 2020 probably beats any other year that I've spent doing art. I realised that just drawing a lot is a huge…

6 years of Twenty Swans!

Okay, so a whole host of things happened in the last year that mean I am lucky to even have cool photos to share right now to reflect on. Who would have guessed that when I flew home to the UK, I'd end up leaving the house only a handful of times in 6 months??…

[Cafe Break] Cafe Pado, an Art Cafe in Hapjeong, Seoul

Pado is absolutely a new favourite place of mine in Seoul. I almost skipped out on visiting it, but I figured I should at least check it out, and I am SO glad I did. It's downright gorgeous and in my opinion, definitely worth a detour. Cafe Pado is best accessed via the Hapjeong station…

My Experience at TEDxBrum 2017

Many of you will know what a TED talk is - a presentation of inspiring ideas and concepts by people from all sorts of fields. We watched many via Youtube whilst I was at school. TED is a nonprofit organisation dedicated to sharing great ideas, and has spread worldwide in their commitment to this. The…

The March 2017 Media Editorial

Look, I know a lot of you are here for the beauty reviews but sometimes even I forget it's only 50% of what I do here. Anyway, I am now in Full Steam Revision Mode (if that is a thing) and the Gap Year Diary is pretty much redundant now I have like, no life…

The Things I Have Done Instead of Hibernation.

I am still strangely content with the progression of life and things right now. How strange is that? It's true that I am tired, though. We are approaching the end of term and right now we all just want to hibernate until Mock Exams are over or something. But despite those exams looming I don't…

Inktober 2015: 21-31

[Trigger warning: gore] -ish. I personally think you have to be really squeamish to be afraid of my drawings... Well, this is very, very late, but here we are at the final installment of Inktober posts. Honestly? I completely forgot about this ever happening. I did finish like 5 drawing in one day with half…

Inktober 2015 Round-up: Days 11-20. (Featuring some #NaNoWriMo2015 characters!)

Here come the next 10 drawings from Inktober! I fell so far behind during the last week of term meaning that I had to draw at least 3 drawings a day if I wanted to finish on Halloween. I'd rather not run over into November because that is a whole new kettle of fish... It's…

Inktober Weekly Round Up #1: Days 1-10

I may have mentioned in passing that I'm taking part in Inktober 2015, which is a social media hashtag project thing in which artists everywhere draw an ink piece once a day. This could be a doodle or a huge thing depending on time constraints, and in biro, india ink, pen or brush, whatever, but…
