these days...

what I'm listening to: Silversun Pickups
mood: blah (wish my back would stop hurting)
what I'm googling: pin-up photography




Hi all, 


The last 2 days have been a bit yuck as I hurt my lower back tuesday at work so I've been bed ridden since but good news I applied for what seems to be an amazing design job at an advertising agency so fingers crossed they liked my mini-portfolio/resume! Other then that I've managed to completely finish first season of the Big Bang Theory and fourth season of the hills and also tried out that other printing methods. 


The fabric glue hasn't been very successful so far but I'm trying it at the moment with a very dark Mucha image so hopefully that works out. I also tried an acetone release using nail polish remover but that was a complete fail! So the only thing left is to try the freezer paper but I'm still a little confused over that...


The other exciting news is I'm doing a photo shoot with one of my best mates who's a hairdresser. She needs to do I think 4 hairstyles and cut/colour to finish her apprentiship and she didn't want to enter into the hairshow so I suggested a photoshoot so I can add the photographs to my portfolio and she gets to do her hairstyles. win win! So had a quick talk with her yesterday arv about theme and I think were going to go with a pin-up shoot that way we can get our friends to do it and hopefully it will be fairly nice on our purses! I absolutely adore pin-ups especially Bettie Page and the art of Gil Elvgren. So were having a catch up this sarv to discuss more. Should be really fun and full on! Haven't done much photography for a long time so it should be interesting and good to get back into it!
