My Family
A few years back my Dad worked on our family tree and managed to source these photographs. I completely forgot we had them. I love looking at them.
First Photograph- Edwin and Sarah Hawkins, taken around 1900. My Great Great Great Grandparents.
Second and Third Photograph- Lucy and Frederick Hawkins, and in the second photograph, my Great Grandfather Archie as a young boy.
We used to call him Coppy. It's what my Dad named him when was young because he couldn't manage to say his real name. Coppy used to give us 50p pocket money and Pear Drops, then we would play with his Rubix cube or on his stair lift until we got told off. Fun times.
Fourth Photograph- Lucy Hawkins and her parents.

Inspire me please...
English eccentrics, miss-matched furniture, fine details, ornate yet jumbled, peculiar and prim. Art, tea, gardening and twill. China, flowers, wood and animals.
Interview: Tim Walker
Watch the interview here... http://www.showstudio.com/project/infashion/films/36330
I came across an interview of fashion photographer Tim Walker through Nick Knight's SHOWstudio website. I never realised that as well as collaborating with set designer Shona Heath, he works with set designer Andy Hillman- who graduated from The Arts Institute Bournemouth too.

Company Illustration
An illustration of Company editor Victoria White, for a competition to win freelance work experience with them. I used a mixed media of gouache, pastel, ink and pencil. Freelance illustration is a job that I had never really thought about, maybe it's because the thought of doing my own taxes does not appeal, but I shall consider after this.

Happy Pills
My housemate recently went travelling around Europe and told me about a shop she came across. Happy Pills is a 'pharmacy' concept sweet shop. They use signature fluorescent pink cross logo and lower case type. The idea is that customers pick 'n' mix their sweets and place them inside clear glass medicine bottles.
It has recognized that sweets are fun and sugar makes you feel good/better, and linked it with medicine and pills.

Fabric + Type
Just a play around with cut out type in floral cotton fabric. I photographed each letter separately on my wooden floor then placed them together in Photoshop. I like the contrast in lighting and markings of the wood on the flooring.
Project Visuals
Here are a series of ideas of different ways I could communicate clothing for my look book, using a 'Pharmacy/Medical' concept. All three ideas clearly depict the clothing in a fun yet informational way.The top image would be created using a photographic image (a styled model) and the bottom image is cut out photographs of clothing placed inside a medicine bottle.
