This is my portfolio and three sketchbooks, that show the work and projects that I have completed over the past two years and am currently working on at Leicester College. I have gained a new set of skills and learnt various techniques, and have also gained knowledge and understanding of different fabrics and how they work. 
More of my Portfolio is on the second and third pages.
This is a project that I did in my first year, it is based all on architecture and the shape and structure of different buildings, mainly focusing on famous buildings. Most of the media that I used was watercolour paints and fine liner. 







This is a project that I recently completed, where I made a jumpsuit out of denim, vinyl and mesh fabric. 


This sketchbook is still in progress, and is based on the texture and patterns that is found in fungi. I have started the project off by using techniques such as machine knitting, shibori, couching, tie dye, pom pom making and batik.  







 For this project I made a shoe out of two types of leathers, I developed my working drawings on the shoe and also learnt new techniques and skills of how to make a shoe.





For this project I had two weeks of life drawing, where I had to learn to draw a body , this was done in timed sessions and the main media I used was pastels and pencils.
 






In this project I looked at four illustrators and researched them and mimicked their designs using watercolour paints.
