KORGURLZ PILOT

I introduce KORgurlz (Kronikles Of Roomies), I did this freehand and added some very simple tech stuff. Its a bit of a mess but I hope it conveys the message I'm trying to get across which is pure non-sense. The comic book follows three roommates that find selfish and obscure ways to save the world and at their own pace. The three girls are loosely based around my personality one girl being myself, the other two girls are actually my real friends too- Funmi (Lola) and Kelly. Dr. Z who is Zaria my 4 year old niece, is also a main character. Nonetheless, adventures like these almost always end up attracting the wrong sort of attention, throughout we meet characters based and depending on the people I come across and spend time with in real life. The comic book involves bits and bobs that compliment the story as well as using other mediums, I find one medium one dimensional.

The initial reason and idea behind the comic book was purely to escape from my mind, due to the fact that I had been recently diagnosed with having quite a depressive state which I'm still battling. The comic book enabled me to move away from feeling stagnant and slowly developed into something I would really like to see through. I hope this excites your sense thus far.

VAGUE UPDATE

Hello guys, long time no parle. I hope all is well on this lazy Sunday. I woke up feeling like blogging and making empty promises about more and AMAZING posts for you guys. I also have to vaguely update you- pretty sure Coco does too!

I shall start with the fact that I am currently enrolled into a programme called Star Track with Spark+Mettle, in short this is what they do "Spark+Mettle is a charity that uses coaching, tech and collaborative events to build character strengths, soft skills and networks in young people.". Its officially been a week since I've started and other than coming to understand myself and how others work, Im coming to understand that there are, Oh! SO many ways people learn. Im one of those philosophic students that believe I learn through my own life experiences and I probably have everything within me already to make me flourish, this programme condones these beliefs. I graduate in April and will likely take over the world by the time I'm done. If you're lost about what you want to do with yourself, and are a true creative I advise you to watch out for the 2015-16 term. I really can't wait to see how my life is at the end of it all.

In other news I have a few projects brewing up, I'm still in the planning stages, however I feel like being this vague only does more harm then good. Im working on a comic book, a very girly comic book, I have worked on my first issue although I'm probably going to use that as a draft and pilot, The second project I will keep under wraps completely due to the fact that Id like to take my time with it, Its fashion based and essentially is my way of exploring the grand enigma that is the female form, I will explain once my idea is a solid plan tho'. My final project a film series will be coming your way too- I have an amazing muse atm and I've just only realised the things I could do with her- for your entertainment (I get that this sounds wrong, lets just pause... and savor this wrongness).

MUSE // CINMMONE

Finally. Here is Bae the first. Nora's Blue. She will be very different the next time you see her and a name change.

The Building Center I

Its seemingly becoming a routine that I spend some me time before another hectic week, and each week becoming much more hectic than the last. I feel I'm slowly attaining my prime- though questionable at times when I look at perhaps how young I am *shrug my prime shouldn't be defined by my earth day. Today's decision to visit The Building Center was after I watched 'The South Bank Show ; Norman Foster' the man behind the Gherkin, The Sainsbury's Center and The Honk Kong and Shanghai Bank (HSBC) on Sky Arts. I enjoy starting new projects but being a person with an extravert temperament I tend not to complete these projects, I've set myself the life long goal of always doing as I say I intend on doing.

Roy Litchenstien ; A Retrospective. I

I have the easily forgettable pleasure of living in London, I have access to many things of a close interest within my range. Today I spent a few hours strolling around the Tate Modern along with my niece. Roy Litchenstien is currently holding an exhibition called 'A Retrospective' running throughout May. I have to be honest though he doesn't live up the hype that surrounds him. I studied him in the previous years and it seems all my teachers spoke so highly of him. I saw his work on the internet in books but actually coming close up to his work? I thought would feel a bit more than it did. Its not all negative. I found a few pieces I studied and reworked in school and truly and utterly fell in love with design, and you'll see why! This will also tell you a lot about my fashion sense, why I love simplicity and most of all lets take a moment to appreciate realism, what I consider the epitome of skill and technique. Id recommend any comic fanatics to go and see his work, I feel because of the type of art I favor, I haven't given credit where its due and perhaps I should. All in all I was impressed by Litchenstien's ability to duplicate several pieces of the same piece of work, as well as his seemingly obsessive ways with perspective and how light works along with it. I loved his projects on 'nudes' and the sculptural work.

Ultimate Love; Richard Nicoll

I'm back from Bristol, tired as hell! Ill post about my trip tomorrow, thought I should do a post on a designer I've loved since last year, Richard Nicholl. Another London born CSM grad who's designs scream out geometry, minimalism and like most British manufactured designers its almost inevitable that the designs have a chic finish. To me this mean the garment is one to treasure the term chic ooze's of everything classy, bold, elegant and the modern woman. I've decided to upload both the SS13 and SS12 collections, to be honest purely because I'm still in love with last years floral prints, the perspex materials, cold pallets and the more interesting layering and textures just as much as I love the new collection which is currently filled with the new so-loved sports luxe, the reoccurring leopard-like print, the mesh seems to have replaced the sheer materials we saw last year. I will start with this years collection.
