Love graffiti

London calling

This graffiti art caught my eye today whilst on my way to get coffee near my house in North London.

Pantone cookies = brilliant!

As a gift to her clients, designer Kim Neill thought up a fitting idea: PANTONE chip cookies.

This is such a rad idea, but I can't believe she spent such a long time mixing and matching all those swatches... that's dedication! I hope her clients appreciated all her hard work...

work? work?

Where are you?
I'm in London, looking for work as a Designer. It's tough! Surprise, surprise I hear you say... I know, but there seems to be quite a bit of work, they are just not picking me!
Got turned down in the last stage for a job on Monday. It was between me and another girl. They picked the other girl. I sulked for a bit then went to the cheap gym (fitspace) to get rid of any negativity in me (there was a lot). So now, I might have another job interview tomorrow for a stationery company in London. Fingers crossed.

can you believe this is a painting?

Talk about fantastic! This is a detail from a painting from the national portrait gallery in London...

so true!
