Why am I feeling zonked?
At the minute I am undertaking a work Placement at English National Opera (ENO) where I have dabbled in millinery, broken down a fair few things in their dye department and just general costume jobs - I even got to go to the 'meet and great' at 3 Mills Studio where I got to meet the director of their upcoming opera 'Cellini', only blooming Terry Gilliam!!
Alongside my six week placement, which I am already nearly halfway through!! I have to complete a self-directed project where I design a space for any performer in the whole wide world.....naturally I have chosen Eddie Izzard. Due to his love of Europe, History, languages and ability to actually speak latin the space he is performing in are some ruins by Teatro Di Marcello in Rome, the concept is a mash up of Roman, 1930s Cabaret and German Expressionism all with an overriding ingredient of 'Executive Transvestite.' It is really enjoyable to get the chance to do something so different, thing is technical drawing is not my forte, so slight downside.....

Technical drawing. Shudder. |
Over the holidays I was asked to do some illustrations for a beauty magazine, all a bit vague but the launch is on the 15th so hopefully know more about the actual magazine soon?! But this is what they wanted.....
This week is also my last few days of being 21, I might be getting older, but Birthday time means time for some fun shenanigans this weekend!
