Show Photos

Here's just a few photos from our end of year show at the Russian Club Studios, a good time was had by all with great food and drink supplied all night.

Thanks to every one that came along and a bigger thanks if you were one of the people that bought some of my stuff!

If for some crazy reason you missed the show it runs until 6p.m. Sunday

FDA Show

Wow, before my post in the last few days I hadn’t posted anything in about 4 months. Well I have now finished my FDA course and am now busy doing work alongside getting myself ready to go onto the 3rd year of BA illustration at Camberwell.

This blog is probably going to see a lot more use now in terms of listing my research sources and things of interest for BA purposes as well as posting work in progress, finished pieces that don’t feel right for my website (tomdorkin.com) and any other bits and pieces I get up to.

Also anyone in the London area on the 8th of July it would be lovely to see you at our FDA illustration and design end of year show in Russian Club Studios (flyer at the top)

There will be free wine and Thai food, what more do you want.

Manifesto

Here is the outcome to my manifesto project, in which we had to create work that went some way to summing up who we are as creative. Mine took the form of an A1 poster featuring over 40 character drawings I did from ages five to six, mixed with a few newly created characters.

I wanted my work to show how I've have always drawn these bizarre characters and shows how my life taking a creative direction is almost completely due to my love of drawing grotesque things.

I am currently trying to figure out how to whip my blog into shape for those who subscribe via RSS, so excuse any stange changes in the coming few posts.

Consume

Massive hiatus in posting but I'm back and determined to keep blogging what I'm up to.

Here are the finished images for my consumerism project. My own currency featuring celebs I see as icons of capitalism. The designs were then photocopied on to found paper related to consumerism such as closing down posters, waste paper and paper bags.

Another post to follow tomorrow

The Decaying Faces Of Paris

I Decided that the old bastion of consumerism, Paris Hilton would be a better fit for my first bank note. Womens faces are really tough to draw im learning more and more, you all need scars an facial hair, that would be a big help thanks.








My Christmas holiday is so close I can almost taste the yorkshire puddings and Ferrero Rocher

The Faces Of Kanye

Still rather busy for a few more days, but lots of proper updates to come.






In the meantime here are some drawings of Kanye West for my 'Consumerism' project at uni. I'm making my own currency and he is on one of my bank notes, which is nice for him.

Tomorrow, Peachs Geldof I think.
