Clay charms and modelling

So, I am working a measley 16 hours a week. This has left me with a lot of free time, so I should really be using it productively by drawing or something. I got myself some clay this morning and have been toying around with making charms and other mini thingys to fill up time. They're not fantastic quality, but are fun and kinda cute. Practice will make perfect. Shame I am very impatient and easily
quit when it comes to arty projects.

The past month, I have been attending a figure and portrait class. This has focused on things like measured drawing and simplifying tone. Unfortunately I only have three more sessions as I'll be having to quit the class as I am moving back to Nottingham, but I thought I'd upload a week 1 and week 2 for portriat and figure, as I think the improvements are noticeable.

In the past few weeks I finished my history degree and started to job hunt. I had a go at apinting, but nothing great came of it. I've tried to go to life drawing classes throughout the last term of Uni, and I think I'm developing/ maintaining drawing ability, but still don't feel like I've got any creative worth going on. I'm also keeping a small A5 sketchbook in which I sketch poses, faces, or whatever as a sort of 'references' collection. Nothing especially interesting to report.

I appear to have been tagged....

:iconkay-ness: has tagged me :O apologies for being boring...

The Rules of Tagging
1. Post these rules
2. Each person tagged must post 8 random (hopefully interesting) facts about themselves
3. Tags should write a blogpost of these facts
4. At the end of the post 8 more bloggers are tagged and named
5. Go to their blog and leave a comment telling them they're tagged

Okay, here we go...

1- I don't own a passport.
2- I'm seriously allergic to eggs.
3- I can't ride a bike. Nor do I care :P
4- I have something of an addiction to shoes and clothes.
5- I dye my hair purple.
6- My favourite chocolate is galaxy caramel, and my favourite fruits are berries and pomegranate.
7- I'm easily irritated by annoying sounds. They go right through my brain and can put me into a rage.
8- I have a paranoia about being burned alive. I also greatly dislike spiders and tampons. There's something wrong about them...

I now tag-

Well, I'm making slow progress! I've drawn out an A3 bar scene, which I'm hoping to start painting at the weekend (wish me luck). I've also been hit with inspiration for costume design, which has prompted me to enter *Angeliq 's 'Draw me'! contest and the '16 Elements/ Chaos and Energy' contest by =KyraShangea
Regarding the last one, I have my outfit designed for the 'Energy' Goddess, which is rather exciting :)

Hopefully will update with these in a week or so.
