First Undercoat

I've done the first undercoat, I have atleast one more to do before painting on the main colour.

Old Designs

Here are a few old design drawings I did during college during early 2011. I believe... well I hope my techniques and designs have improved, but just incase I think I'll do some practicing so I'm a pro when I start uni.

Chill Emulsion Print

I've decided to show you something a bit different today, one of the emulsion prints I made a couple of weeks ago,  'Chill'.

Stripped and Sanded

My chair has FINALLY been stripped and sanded, it took so long because I did about an hour a week (sometimes less) when I was taking the leather off. It was very difficult to take the leather off because I didn't have the right equipment but it was worth it. The sanding only took about an hour because it was a light sand, just to lighten the dark colour and to roughen the wood up before painting. Now it's time to thoroughly clean the wood before painting!!

New Project

I've given myself a 'little' project to do. I am taking an old chair, stripping it, painting it and re-upholstering it. So far I have taken the leather off the arms which took me over two hours to do, since they used an abnormal amount of staples and I don't have the right equipment.

Exhibition

Here is me with my work at my college's art and design exhibition. These were the designs, boards and models from my personality project.
