when i was having a nap before i had the bestest dream ever :D it started with me walking down the street with all of my art stuff, but i tripped over and dropped everything. anyway, this bloke came over and helped me pick it up, so i said thanks and looked up and guess who it was? noel fielding looking all awesome :D he was like ‘are you a scouser’ and i was like ‘you could tell?’ ha ha and he did a scouse accent because he said it was ace :D and then we started talking about art stuff because he went ‘wow your pictures are genius!’ in his lovely cockney accent and i was like ‘yeah i’m an art student, i do illustration at uni’ and we were chatting about our favourite artists and then he said ‘you’re brill, i know, do want two tickets to one of my shows, yeah?’ ahhh it was boss and it’s noel fielding duh so of course i said yeah :) then the next bit was when me and my mum went to one of his shows (ha ha random how my mum was there because she’s not a fan of his in real life but yeah) and it was boss and by the end of the show mum was like ‘he’s proper funny, him!’ :D and then we saw noel backstage and he was like ‘omg lois, you came!’ and me and mum were all having proper funny conversations with him but sadly i woke up :O but yeah, just thought i had to tell you because of reasons :) x

This is a page from my journal :) It’s poorly scanned in, but the quote’s from ‘The Middle’ by Jimmy Eat World, which has been a favourite song of mine for years. This particular line means quite a lot to me because I’ve always worried what people have thought of me (it’s only recently that I’ve started not giving a rat’s arse what people think of me), and I think this quote is so reassuring. Honest to god, say if I’m having a crappy self esteem day, I listen to this song and it makes me feel much better :’)
I even fancy getting this tattooed on me one day :D (It sounds like I want loads of tattoos lmao!) xD x

This is the first page of my art journal. I decided to experiment with stitching and typography in this one, and I also couldn’t help but include a little bit of mark-making as well xD This is inspired by those hip Tumblr quotes you see all the time, Jenny Hart’s use of stitching on paper as well as  Eduardo Recife’s use of borders and pattern-making.
This quote is from Invisible Monsters by Chuck Palahniuk, which is a cracking book. My mate Mel lent me her copy a month ago and I have to say, it’s become one of the best books I’ve ever read :’) x

In the Hold
circa 1913 - 1914
David Bomberg
Tate Collection:

This painting relates to Bomberg’s search for a purely visual language with which to  express his perceptions of the modern urban environment.  In the Hold is  based on a scene of dockers working in the hold of a ship. A ladder,  seen in the lower right of the picture, connects the hold with the deck  above. In the centre left one of the dockers can be seen, wearing a hat.  Bomberg has left  visible the squaring-up grid, used to enlarge   accurately the preliminary drawing.  He has then used this geometrical framework to dissolve  the subject of  the picture into dynamic angular facets. Bomberg was aware of the  militancy  of the dockworkers which was much publicised  at the time.
