Sneak preview

The last time I did something creative I was really, really happy with was when I made the fab embroidered cardigan for Jasmine, and given that I'm now studying to become a creative professional, that probably gives you some idea of the insecurity I am normally wracked with about my work, and perhaps the high standards I set for myself ;)

Anyhow, I have just finished the drawings for my latest project (I am studying Landscape and Garden Design) and I'm actually really happy with them, so thought I'd share here. The technical details of how they're done are below, if you're interested.

These are done by creating a 3D model in a piece of software called SketchUp (it's free and really easy to use - have a go!). I then took "photos" of the model from the required angles (essentially by exporting them as JPG's) and then altered these photos and mashed various styles together using Photoshop.

Hopefully I'll get a good mark for this project :)
