This blog
displays a selection of my portfolio work which I feel best represents my
personality and style. I am currently studying Textiles Art and I am thoroughly
enjoying the freedom of the course as it has allowed me to broaden my skills
and discover my own style of work. I am continually developing my work through
experimentation of technique, colour and design; I strive for perfection in
everything I do.
I have
submitted a selection of my AS and A Level Textile Artwork as well as some
images from my GCSE Textiles Technology portfolio. I have included my Textiles
Technology work to demonstrate my drawing, design and practical skills in
Fashion. I was very pleased to be awarded an A* grade at GCSE Level. My Textile
Artwork showcases my flare and creativity. I love creating sketchbooks which
are bursting full of information and inspiration which I can then use to aid
the development of my final pieces. I really enjoyed exploring the theme of Art
Nouveau in my AS Level exam work by taking my own photographs and using them to
inspire my corset design. I also enjoyed creating the Helen Banzhaf inspired
piece because it was a new and challenging technique.
I am really
excited at the prospect of studying Fashion Design because I believe this is
the next step towards me fulfilling my ambition of working within the Fashion
Industry. I feel that the course is very exciting and within it I have the
scope to fully express and experiment with my creativity. I would relish the opportunity to work within
an environment I love and I feel studying Fashion Design will enable me to do
this.
