Following on from my last blog… Part One showcased two amazing young photographers, Eleanor Hardwick and Eleni Mettyear. These next two are pure talented gems and acctually my all time favourite photographers I think! Lara Jade and Kirsty Mitchell both combine fashion with their own twist of surealism, transpoting the viewer into their magical fantasy worlds, bursting with imagination, that doesn’t even seem possible… when I look at the images I am overcome by inspiration and fall lost into the atmosphere that is carefully created within each image.

I’ve been following Lara’s photography since she began in her teen years, and the progress she has made from being self taught to setting up her own buisness is truly inspiring. As an amitious creative myself I really admire the determination and efforts that must have gone into both these photographers personal journeys, and in creatiing their spectacular portfolios. I am definitely going to save up and buy a print or two for my wall, in the future!

I’m extremely jealous of the four exceptionally talented young british photographers I will be showcasing over the next two posts. I have spent hours drooling over all thier sexy imagey and beautiful visions they have brought to life. It’s great to see such young creatives producing such imaginative work… starting off by shooting with their friends, and now working on impressive commisioned projects for great clients! Ahh, what a dream! I’m sure they will all be shooting for Vogue or even better, in their future years!

One of my favourite illustrators is spanish artist (now east-london based) – Cristina Guitian. Her work is a huge inspiration to me! – I’ve been following her work for months now, thus jumped at the chance to attend her privet view exhibition last week in Dalston. It was a cute little exhibit of her latest series of work “Portraits of my Life as a Bird”. She usually does big murals and installations, but it was really nice to see her pieces hanging framed on a wall, and admire all the huge amount of little details in her drawings. I wish I could buy a print, but she doesn’t seem to sell any!!

How amazing!! I’ve always wanted to paint a wall… One of my many ambitions in life! (It IS going to happen!)

Life is as good and as sweet as you make it… and I plan to make 2010 an amazing year, and grow even further than the last 3 years… pheww! I’d like to quickly share some really inspiring images from top creative agency TMW. I am starting my first job as a Junior Designer with them next week and am very excited to get involved, learn, design and absorb myself in cultural city life… Here is a selection of my favourite pieces of their digital projects – a standard of work I aspire to creating myself in the future.
