I'M ALIVE!

I'm not dead! But I have had art exams and tests galore the past few weeks, so now it's the Easter holidays I can finally get some free time, and hopefully blog a little more.

I've spent pretty much most of the last week listening to Kerrang! while I worked on this beast:

This A1 self portrait was for my A level art exam, and took a hell-of-alotta time! The theme I picked from the exam paper was "Regalia,", so here is me in my regalia xD This was submitted as part of the prep work, along with a few not quite so good paintings, my etchings/printmaking and some charcoal studies of my Docs, (sketchbook included, obviously.) For the actual 5 hour exam, I did a smaller pencil portrait of myself, in my "regalia" again, in the same pose as Hans Holbein's painting of Anne of Cleves.

Since my exam finished I've been relaxing and enjoying ACTUAL FREE TIME! I've been making many things too, which I will blog about individually when each one is finished.

I hope everyone is having a nice Easter holiday's so far! If you're not on holiday, then I hope you're having a good time at work/school. :3
