2012 Time for change

I found the trailer for this film randomly on Itunes. I really really like the artwork. The idea behind the film is fantastic - looking at how we need to change our lifestyles to bring change in our environment.

 

"Its just our inital resitance to change, thats how we progress, we put ourselves out of the comfort zone."

The artwork is very illustrative and colourful with intricate detail. I'm quite interested in indian patterns for simliar reasons....Sari fabrics, multicoloured blankets and cushions, sequins, gold thread, silk...

I'm a big fan of colour. I don't know why, but I just love it, and I can't imagine a world without it. I think losing my sight would be one of the worst things for me. I wear a lot of bright colours - something i'm known for among my friends. I particularly love vibrant coloured paper and card - often investing in any I see. Paperchase is a goldmine for me. I can spend hours in there looking at paper. It is one of my obsessions.

I recently tried out laser cutting letters out of coloured card, loving the tactile feel of the little objects. I came across this work by Rob Ryan which I really love. The handcut, handmade effect gives the designs character and an innocence almost, allowing the person to be drawn into the little world thats depicted.

I really love the fairytale happiness, love and the little moments they represent.
