2016 update and amazing videos from tUnE-yArDs.

I don't know how i've never seen these guys' videos before, they are amazing. They remind me of the Don't Hug Me I'm Scared guys but more in tune with music I guess rather than narrative, it's much more focused on the aesthetic of each scene.
I've never thought about set design as something I would like to do, and if i'm honest I still don't, but I'm so enraptured by these videos that it makes me want to be a part of something like this in some way, maybe I could be the coffee and tea girl?

I decided that now that COP is out of the way I need to refocus on the future now I can look away from a computer screen for a while and look at the bigger picture.
I mentioned in an earlier post that I got a new job in a Tattoo Studio, I've been observing how they work and how they paint, and I'm going to push myself further in that direction.
Nothing is set in stone, but I hope to have a complete flash portfolio by June, for when I leave.

I was thinking how I can do this whilst completing university work, and I didn't want to be creating work I didn't care about while my brain is always thinking about tattooing, how to paint, how it might work on skin, what I need to do, so I think that this will be a big part of what direction I take my work in for OUIL603: Extended Practice. What if my final exhibition (and big kahuna brief) is having a flash portfolio, big A1 paintings of back pieces and all my development is figuring out my own tone of voice and techniques? My mind is racing and I can already think of a million ways I can do this.

In terms of PPP, I will tie all of this together, the person that makes pictures that is me, the person that aspires to tattoo and be well professional about it all, the person that needs personal branding that conveys all of this.

For now though here is a picture by my forever crush, Kaye Blegvad and basically what is me after hand in, yay for self care!
