So we're six weeks in and this is my first blog post. Now that our blogs aren't compulsory I doubt I'll be updating this very often! Especially seeing as it's only my dad that actually reads it!!!
Right so.... spaces, structures and systems. Not the kind of thing I would be drawn to usually but of course I made it my own and turned it back into self portraits as I always do. It's funny how some people have found the thing they're going to make the main focus of their work and will manage to work all briefs around that theme rather than following a brief to the letter.

Well enough talk here is a couple of images of what I've been working on.

This first picture is of a lino-cut we were asked to make for the Limerick Printmakers Culture night. The theme was 'Limerick' so I went with two small traveller children on their ponies and a bit of Limerick slang.
 These following 5 images are some collages I'm making for our SSS brief. I'm loving making them and as soon as my finger allows me too I'll be back to making them.







And lastly I have been knitting alot of very small hats this past week. In winter Innocent smoothie put bobble hats on their smoothies and then give 25c from each one sold to Age Action Ireland so I decided to join in and make a few hats to support the cause. So far I have 7 finished...I think... And I'll continue making those until the 25th of November so if you want to join in or have some ideas for a good hat - let me know!
