04.12.2012 - art coursework preview

I'm sure you've all forgotten i exist by now it's been that long, but i'm here to give my pathetic excuses and show you a small part of the reason for my absence. Right so it seems it's only right to update you all and list said excuses, so here goes. 
1. school is hard. I'm in my second year of a-levels now and oh lord I am feeling the pressure! When i've finished school/the 4 or 5 hrs of coursework i do each night, i only just have the energy to lie in bed with my candles and music, nevermind blog.  
2. Everything creative currently scares me, due to the fear of not getting into uni/ the big bad world, and therefore everytime i try to do something creative (blog/get dressed etc) I just think i'm not good enough to succeed in a creative career and therefore stop doing said activity straight away. 
3. I split up with my boyfriend of two years and was too sad to look pretty and blog and write happy thoughts (I'm alright now though, who needs men when you can have candles and a bed instead? hibernation is the way forward) 
4. the below images kind of took over my life and i took to dressing others and editing their faces instead of my own. For one of my projects i've chosen to design the advertising campaign for a shop 'translate', and so far have the images below. 
anyway, EVER so sorry for that mini essay, I'd love it if you could let me know what you think of these images though, i must thank my beautiful friend sophie for making them look so good, who came runner up in a modelling competition in tatler magazine (!!!!) previous this year.
