It's been too long!

Ohhh I am being absolutely rubbish at keeping up with my blog!
So much has been going on lately and I've been finding it hard to grab a spare minute to tell you all about it.

So a few months ago I had my shoot with Sony for a new playstation game, that was fantastic! Met some lovely models and everyone else so it was good fun. Since then I've moved out of home into a flat with friends and have had various other shoots, including appearing on BBC's 'The One show' which was sooooo much fun! I've mentioned before I worked on the zombie film that has just been relieased 'Colin' so myself and another makeup artist on the film spent the hour making up 30 kids into zombies. Everyone I met there was really nice aswell and fun, has made me start to think more seriously about careers in tv and other entertainment.

There's lots of new jewellery on my site, I have lots of ideas for new products and am going to try and introduce some more clothing after experimenting with some new things. Watch this space for that...

Will try and get some christmassy jewellery done too!

TRICK OR TREAT

Friday, 28 August 2009

OOF

I know, I know, I said I would update more regularly, but I have just been sooooo busy!!
There's so many new products etc I can't even remember what I have to show you, but there are a few things I can think of.

Firstly I am now one of the handmade jewellery designers on myfavemarketplace.com which is a site that sells EVERYTHING and was set up by Charles Saatchi and others!!
Check it out CLICK if you search for 'raffles bizarre' it should show you just my stuff!
How exciting, here's hoping it brings lots of new sales!

The past two days has be particularly exciting, I have been doing makeup for photoshoots with Sony for a new Playstation game, it's been a lot of fun and met some wonderful people, hopefully it will lead to further shoots even if not quite as massive as working for SONY!!!

I've had some other photoshoots lately too, one for Nikita Sablier, a London designer who makes the most amazing corsets and dresses. You should definately visit her shop in Carnaby street or at least check out her site HERE
Whilst at this shoot I had some of my jewellery snapped on the younger models, here's my fav...



I also mentioned before a young photographer rented my jewellery for her 'Steampunk Pirate' shoot, well here is what she came up with. You can see more on my website.



Lastly (though I may come back and edit if I think of more) I had my jewellery featured in this new, but impressive online zine and have more features coming soon.



So that's it for now but hopefully it won't be too long before my next post. Am off carbooting tomorrow so maybe I'll find some new pretties to play with.

new stuff at last

Afternoon!
Busy busy busy Jess, I have had so much going on (mostly social stuff) I've hardly had a minute to stop and think. I've finally found some time to make a few new things...

Work is still cool, lots of overtime coming up, which is much needed at the moment. I am saving up for a couple trips and also moving out at the beginning of September. So I need as much saved up as possible right now. Another reason I needed to get some new jewellery made. I might look into doing some new stalls soon too.

I have a photoshoot coming up (to do the makeup for) which I can hopefully grab a couple shots of the model wearing some of my new pieces. I also should recieve photos back from another photographer who rented my jewellery. I will post my favs when I recieve them.

The RB auctions end at midnight tonight. They're super super cheap so check them out if you'd wanted any.

Just a quick one.

So as usual I have been super busy! Last Sunday I had my 'art in the park' event, which didn't seem to be very profitable for anyone there, including me. However it was a loooovely hot day and a bunch of friends came down to keep me company. I thought I would post a picture of my space anyhoo.Today I have loaaaads to do! A young photographer has rented a bunch of my jewellery for her steampunk-pirate inspired shoot, so I have a bunch of fnishing touches to do before I can package it all up for the morning's post. I will post a couple pics of the shoot when I get them.

Tara for now, more soon!

time is running out

Oooooh I have been working NON-STOP every spare minute this week. I've been trying to get everything finished in time for the 'Art in the park' event tomorrow. Finally I am getting there, I have a few things to touch up on paintings, but I think nearly all my jewellery and cards have been labelled etc now. Later I must hunt for some fabric big enough to cover the table I am taking.

I did a couple more paintings because I found some larger canvases...


and I also made a couple of new necklaces this week as I was itchy fingers.


Anyhoo, I must stop procrastinating and finish printing and attatching strings to my canvases. If ya live in the Osterley area DO pop down and say hi tomorrow!! WISH ME LUCK!
