final uni project THE 12 LABOURS OF HERCULES

i havnt blogged in a while been overly busy with uni work etc, but i thought id share my final project with you, the brief was to create a final piece based on one of the 12 labours of hercules, i chose the 9th labour, were hercules was challanged to get the belt off hippolyta queen of the amazons. we had to do this ina  contempory design so i chose to illustrate the story by creating a graphic novel in the style of frank millers sin city, my over all final piece which ill upload later on i was really pleased with and suprised myself as i enjoyed the project alot and its the complete opposite style i normally go for. these are a couple of the initial illustrations

Alexander Mcqueen

We all love Alexander Mcqueen, and his death last year saddened up all, ive just finished watching a documentry on more4 about his life, and his career, and have fallen in love with him all over again
mainly its his catwalk shows hat i love, a new definition of performance art, he is most definitly one of britains most important designers, in Fashion and Design.
as the late Isabella Blow said ‎'he's a wild bird with a good sillouette'
Lee Mcqueen may your designs live on

Hi im Yaz

Hi im Yaz, im a Graphic designer, a jewellery and accessories designer, and a lover of all things arty, im 20 and studying Graphic Arts at Liverpool John Moores. When it comes to Graphic Design im yet to find a style, and still learning important skills,
I have my own Jewellery and accessories business, newly named 'Poppy Love' was originally poppies handmade, but didnt find it too catchy :S
I love fashion and firmly believe we should set the trends, and not follow them,
my own style is rather questionable, mainly my choice in makeup as i like the look of a porcelin doll with heavy eye makeup, rarely going natural, i love all things vintage and anything that glitters
Im hoping to blog about my jewellery, my artwork, my life, my inspirations, and those amazing designers out there  . . .
