I Am Back!

Hi again, after sooo long!

Hope you all had a Merry Christmas and an even more Merrier New Year! 

I wonder what all of your new years resolutions are . . . mine are to get fit ready for the summer . . . do more crazy and wonderful arty things . . . get organised (that's a tough one!) . . . and just enjoy 2013, it's going to be the best year yet!

I have missed blogging, and can not wait to get back into once again . . . I have still been doing lots of Arty Farty stuff . . . which I will be posting from now on, along with the projects I am doing at the moment.



Firstly I am going to show you my Architecture Sketchbook . . . only a sneak preview though! 

                                      

 I love to do technical drawings . . . I am indulging this love . . . 

I will be posting more frequently with all the projects I have either up my sleeve, already completed or I am currently tackling. 

Day 31

Day 31 . . . Self-Portrait . . .

For my last challenge I wanted something which showed my mood . . . and well I am feeling so ill right now . . . good old winter has brought on a lovely cold for me . . . so all I want to do is snuggle up in bed with Harry Potter and something to cuddle . . . I have used some tips I have learnt through this challenge to create these images . . . Bokeh . . . Studio Lighting Effect . . . Warm Glow . . . And most of all I have learnt how to pose, kinda!

So . . . today is the day . . . the end of my 31 Day Photographic Challenge . . . I am sad to say goodbye to it. The challenges have got my mind racing . . . my camera snapping . . . and my bum off from my sofa just looking at photographers work and wishing I had done a shoot like that.

Its not the end . . . far from it . . . I am now starting an Instagram 30 day challenge . . . I can't stop doing the challenges . . . just too addictive . . .

So if don't follow me already then look up someone called Loveowlie and you will find my instagram account. 

This challenge has taught me new tricks of the trade . . . created so many new ideas for full shoots . . . most of all it has given me an even bigger love for camera's . . . any camera . . . big or small . . . phone or DSLR . . . old or new . . .

Roll on the new challenges . . . new photo-shoots . . . new artwork . . . new arty farty adventures . . .

Keep an eye out for this blog! Exciting things are soon to happen.

Day 30

Day 30 . . . Something Transparent . . .

Not completely transparent but I do love the pattern on our living room doors, and the light shinning through them is just so pretty . . . really makes the house feel so warm. 

I added some more light details with Bokeh to give it more edge . . . more depth . . . more beautiful . . . I think it has worked . . . I have to admit I could've done more . . . There will defiantly be more to come for the Transparent theme at some stage . . 

Tomorrow is the last day of the challenge . . . I can't believe it is over . . . but I will be saying my goodbyes to this challenge tomorrow . . .

The challenge for the last day is . . . Self-Portrait . . .

Day 29

Day 29 . . . Sharp . . .

Sharp . . . Pumpkins . . . Sharp . . . Pumpkins . . . hrm . . . where's the connection I hear you say . . . well there is one! I promise. 

I needed something Sharp to carve out my pumpkin's face. 

I know very little connection, but I had to get Halloween into this challenge somehow as it is the month for it. 

Carving out pumpkins is the best . . . I did it with my boyfriend this year . . . It was soo much fun . . . kinda a bit of competition but I think mines a clear winner . . . obviously!!! 

No, seriously I love both . . . ones scary and ones cheeky . . . ones the Trick . . . ones the Treat . . .

Who's is your favorite?

I know, it's very girly of me, maybe a bit too girly, but I would love a pink Autumn!

Day 27 . . .

Day 27 . . . Art . . .

Sorry I haven't been uploading for a few days . . . I am gutted as it is the last few days, but I have had such a bad headache continuously for about 3 days . . . It has finally progressed into a sore throat . . . A cold is coming . . . 

I am getting up to date, and I hope these images make up for me being away as I have put my all into them.

So . . . today's theme is Art . . . oh how I love Art . . . It has been a passion of mine every since I picked up my first crayon. I decided to start to sketch out some Teddy Bears . . . why . . . because it is my nephews 1st birthday soon and I need to get card making. I want it to be a special one so I am practicing . . . he might look and the card and laugh . . . or he might just walk straight past . . . I am hoping for the laugh! Fingers Crossed! 

Tomorrow's challenge is . . . Something Pink.

Day 26

Day 26 . . . Space . . .

I love anything about space at the moment . . . I love the stars at night . . . I love space textures in Photoshop . . . I love conceptual space photographs and artworks . . . I am just space crazy.

So when I found an exhibition at the Tate Britain on my trip to London I had not only found really beautiful pieces of art but found my picture for today! I may have taken it yesterday but I have edited it today and played around with it all today. 

The exhibtion was a response/a link to the artist J. M. W. Turner by the modern artist Vija Celmins . . . The pieces of artwork were of the spaces sky as we see it, will just the stars twinkling above us.

Tomorrow's challenge is . . . Art . . .
