Updates












The lack of blog posts has increased due to the fact I've had an art assessment (which is today) + which all of my time is spent doing.

But - Hello everyone, i hope you've all had a good past week etc. I don't know what the weather is like where you are but it's SUPER sunny today which is a bit of a pain as much as it is lovely, because putting up artwork in the studios is extra hard when it's hot.

This week i celebrated my best friend's 19th birthday which was really lovely, as although we had work to do, we still managed to find the time to get milkshakes and birthday pancakes which is always a bonus! (:

In the first picture, i wanted to show my hair colour. I'm naturally a brunette but I've been blonde for the past few years. I'm going through a bit of a wild phase, and want to go silver. I've tried many times but i recently bought Bleach London sliver shampoo and it's honestly the best one i've tried.  They do a variety of different wacky colours as well as bleach kits and toners.You can find them here 

For the last few days i have been really interested in the world we live it. I've seen going to sleep really late (like 4am) and listening to the morning chorus. Also i've den watching the sky and how the clouds move across the vast expansion.The way as human kind and with the gift of gravity we stand still and not even fussed at all. It makes us feel invincible.

Recently, i've been enjoying my own time and taking note of all the small things that make my day. Like the walk home from the studios, the chai latte i drink everyday and just simply my own place. Sometimes i think we all go through phases of just appreciating what we have. I think we should all do it a little more often.

lace






it's a beautiful day today here in Kent. So I'm happy to be sitting in my apartment, catching up on my sketchbook work, although i wish i was outside. 

today i am grateful for; 

- my mother. she has really helped me out recently and i cannot thank her enough
- my lovely friends. whom without i would not smile everyday
- my apartment is south facing, so the sun is always peering in
- finally knowing where my art project is going

today my inspirations are; 

- clothes; lace. i am wearing a cute lace bralet top and it's so pretty and comfy. 
- music; the 1975. i am obsessed and their acoustic sessions are perfect on a day like today.
- art; nudes. my current project is about the body and crystals. 

hope you all have a wonderful sunny day.

bipolar post.




because i'm about to go on a rant here is the video i promised the other day; featuring Megs. 

after sleeping for only an hour at 3:25am, i was rudely awoken by a dripping sound. The gentle splish splash was getting louder by the second. Next thing i know, is that my entire apartment was flooded. I don't just mean little puddles, I'm talking underwater. I'm so angry with the security guards because they didn't offer to help clear out my possessions or move me to another flat whilst the water continued to flow.  A lot of my photographs and books have been ruined but as long as it wasn't my DSLR. i would of died.

So today with the hour sleep i received, watched the sun arise on my water logged apartment, leave, attend lectures and now am blogging in the art house because i seriously cannot focus after only drinking one chai latte.

i think a lot more needs to be consumed.

oh and i missed my morning smoothie run with megs = a very unhappy tayler.

sunday





- Seeing as it was sunny today i had to do something adventurous and take a small walk with Megs. After bathing in the sun, we decided to make a short film which blogger won't let me upload, so here is a picture of some pretty flowers i bought to make my apartment feel a little more homely. It was a relaxed day, reading art theory books, listening to music and just bathing in the sun. I cannot wait for summer. It's only march and it feels like we've bypassed Spring completely. 

- Megs and i have been talking about going away at Easter for a few days to a city to get some art inspiration and just have a little break from Kent & today all of a sudden we booked two tickets to Paris! We have both been before but as it's my favourite place in the world ( no lie there ) i always feel the desire to go and never come back. I am now extremely excited as it's just over a month away.. which speaking of this, i need to brush up on my french..bonjour? & i have so much to plan; clothes/itinerary/music/insurance/money it's going to fly by. 

- Talking of time passing quickly - my first year at university is nearly over. i only have four weeks left & then after Easter we are assigned to a third year to help out with their final degree show which will be really interesting to work with another artist. Although i bet i'll just be a latte runner. 

- I was hitting myself against a brick wall ( metaphorically ) with my art ideas. I had seriously hit a dry spot and i couldn't think of anything else to do related to my previous project; which was bones & conditions. I've now thought about the human body & form and what are natural forms, e.g crystals.  Brainstorm- having a skin like material with growing crystals on it. 

- Most of that was a ramble so i apologise. 

p.s i will try and upload the video at some point. hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

hello again



Hello again, welcome back to my blog! 

I have been away for so long and have sat there with my laptop with blogger open waiting for the right moment to start blogging again. Every other day I wonder about starting a fresh blog with a fresh face (unlike my own as I'm writing this at 1am!) but I had a side track moment tonight, looking through my 14 year old blogger self and it gave me a very warm nostalgic feeling. So this night was the perfect spark to the firework. 

There's some questions that need answering so i'll state the obvious:

Where have I been? 
University. I'm currently in my first year and honestly, I don't have time to breathe. I'm a workaholic!

Studying what? 
Bachelor of Fine Arts

What are you going to blog about?
I tried with a sort-of-fashion blog but I think I needed more help with how to run a fashion blog. So I think it's going to be about inspirations/art/fashion & life. I guess just a general blog without all the normal bitchy things people can write in blogs. 

So, yup, this is it. I cannot wait to start sharing what is going on in my small bubble of my life with different parts of the world. I hope that within this blog people find inspiration like I do. As well as that, I hope that we can share our thoughts and admirations in this world. 

If anyone has any questions,thoughts,comments or requests then please do let me know. 
much love.
