Attend!

My sister's displaying her work this year, she's down there in the links. Go tell her she's great, 

commission some work!

I think it'll be good this year, the expected drivel but not everyone can have First Class Honours like that one up there...Bastard =]

I'm sure i'll leave with an obscene amount of postcards yet again.

Two years and i'll be doing this, either sobbing in a corner or in a happy drunken stupor.

Oh.Holy.Crap

opal fruits

'The Opal Fruits brand name was scrapped in 1998 and replaced with Starburst by manufacturer Mars, much to the annoyance of some fans. Starburst first appeared in the US in 1976.

The chewy fruit sweets with the tagline, "Made to make your mouth water" will now return with their old name for a limited period.

The packaging will be the same and the original four flavours of orange, lemon, lime, and strawberry will be brought back.

The only difference will be that this time the recipe contains no artificial flavours or colours.

Opal Fruits will be on sale exclusively through supermarket chain Asda from May 11 for a limited period of 12 weeks. Starburst will continue to be sold as normal.

If the return of Opal Fruits is as popular as Mars expects it may make their comeback more permanent.

A spokesperson for Mars was reported in the Daily Mail to have said: "The brand is a classic. Everyone of a particular generation remembers the Opal Fruits catchphrase.

"After a 10-year absence from the UK market, we have decided to bring back Opal Fruits as a limited-edition offer. For those who remember the sweets in their original guise it will be an opportunity to evoke that sense of nostalgia." '

Blasphemy

"For who would lose, Though full of pain this intellectual being, Those thoughts that wander through eternity, To perish rather, swallow’d up and lost In the wide womb of uncreated night?"

2nd year results: A3, B2, A2, A3

What was said: Strong, unique, very well researched ideas. Development of imagery needed more time in last project. One of the students tipped to do very well

My thoughts: Pretty grades =]

This Summer won't be a waste on the art front, like the previous ten hundred thousand. I'll get my room sorted out with the proper desk and keep working on 'the moment of death' project...and learn how to paint. Whoever heard of an artist who couldn't paint?

It was rubbish saying goodbye to all my second year buddies today.

Apocrypha

Another outlet for my endeavors into the art world...or a place of nonsensical ramblings.


"Whenever i find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bring up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such a upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off--then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can."
