The end of uni....

So uni is now coming to an end, the degree show is coming down tomorrow and I am off back down to Leicester land. The results are in and I shall be graduating with a 2:1 - rather pleased! I haven't put any final show stuff up yet as I didn't want to be ruining the surprise for anyone that was coming to the show! shall pop some up now though.

I am really happy with my final book, I actually quite love it! I got 5 copies printed and everyone seems to have gotten quite excited about them. I sent one down to my Mum's nursery and the children liked it and asked to read it again! The tutors have all even congratulated me on it which was a relief.

Putting up the show went really well (except for some shelf related issues) I did a big thread drawing - an adaptation of my front cover - on the wall over the books which was really exciting and fun to do....

Little practice photoshoot....

Photoshoot in progress.....

Some photos taken by my lovely assistant Heather during the photoshoot with Andy....

5 weeks to go.....

So 5 weeks to go until I put up my final show and throughout the whole project I have failed to blog! I have started to give out my postcards (which are beautiful, photographed by AndrewF http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/andrewf-photography/41006849089 ) and realised that people will be visiting this page and seeing nothing. So lets get started at being a proper blogger...for real this time.

Well my children's book (which is what I am making for my final major project) is well on its way. Ruby is looking beautiful and has made friends with the whole studio. My sister is doing a photoshoot for me next week which should be really good as her photography is wonderful (will show you some at a later date). All in all I am really happy with how the project is going, feeling very positive, despite having no life outside of Ruby and her world.

So here she is more recently......
