HELLO! IT’S DEFIANTLY BEEN A WHILE.

BUT LET ME UPDATE YOU. LATELY I’VE BEEN GETTING ASKED BY A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE ON MY SNAPCHAT ABOUT ALL THESE “COOL” PLACES I GO. SOOOO,  I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE FUN & USEFUL TO START POSTING A DIARY OF STUFF I LIKE TO DO AND ATTEND. MOST OF THESE THINGS ARE SO SPONTANEOUS THOUGH, I FIND LOTS OF STUFF ON SOCIAL MEDIA OR I SECRETLY GOOGLE THINGS AT WORK AND JUST GO AFTER.

SO HERE YOU HAVE IT, THE FIRST TWO THINGS THAT IS CURRENTLY IN MY DIARY TO ATTEND.

MY FRIEND FROM SECONDARY SCHOOL IS PUTTING ON AN EXHIBITION WITH OTHER ARTISTS. NOT SURE WHAT TO EXPECT  BUT I KNOW IT WILL BE EXCITING & UNFORGETTABLE. MORE INFO FIND HIM AT: HTTPS://WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM/ELLIS_L.D/

LATE TATE

“THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY FOR THE CURIOUSLY MINDED TO EXPLORE THE GALLERY AFTER HOURS”.

I GOT INVITED TO THE LAST OF THE #LATETATE EVENT OF THE YEAR BY A FRIEND. TYPICAL ME WENT TO THE COMPLETELY WRONG MUSEUM- TATE MORDEN, AND MISSED BASICALLY THE WHOLE EVENT. *HANGS HEAD IN SHAME*

BUT I DID GET A QUICK GLIMPSE OF WHAT WAS ON SHOW, PHOTOGRAPHY SERIES FROM NADINE IJEWERE AND VARIOUS PAINTINGS & SCULPTURES FROM OUR FAMOUS ARTIST: DAMIAN HURST, BEN NICHOLSON, PATRICK COALFIELD TO NAME A FEW. OVERALL IT WAS A SHORT & SWEET NIGHT FILLED WITH LOTS OF ART, MUSIC AND DRINKS!

BEAUTIFUL INSTILLATION BY SHIRAZEH HOUSHIARY.

FILLED WITH CURIOSITY

FILLED WITH CURIOSITY= NOSEY AF! THIS PROBABLY MEANS NOTHING TO MAJORITY OF PEOPLE THESE DAYS, ITS PROBABLY A MUTRAL THING TO LIKE OR FAV PEOPLES PICTURES, BEST BUDS TO STRANGERS ON ALL ALL SOCIAL PLATFORMS, INSTAGRAM, TWITTER FACEBOOK, TUMBLR WHATEVER... ME NOT HAVING INSTAGRAM MY MIND MAY HAVE SHIFTED TO WHAT THESE LOOKED OVER SIGNALS COULD MEAN.

SO I TOOK TO TUMBLR, AS I HAVE A HIGH FOLLOWING THAN MY OTHER SOCIAL ACCOUNTS- MAJORY ARE AMERICAN SO THEY ARE LIKE 6 HRS BEHIND PROBS STILL IN CLASS AS WE SPEAK.
I ALSO ASKED MY FELLOW SNAPPERS TOO:

GUYS & GIRLS: WHAT DO YOU THINK IT MEANS WHEN A GUY OR GIRL FAVS YOUR PICTURE ON THE REGULAR?? I WANT TO KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS! 

!!THIS IS NOT A PERSONAL QUESTION FOR ME!!


HERE’S WHAT SOME OF MY SNAPPERS HAD TO SAY.


1) IT MEANS THEY ARE FEELING YOU. OR IF THEY ARE LONG TERM FRIEND IT MAY SHOW SUPPORT & LOVE

2) DEFFO ON TO YOU AND WAITING ON A RESPONSE TOO

3) PROBS MEANS THEY LIKE YOU 

4) THEY GENERALLY LIKE YOU, YOUR PICS OR THEY WANNA BLOW YOUR BACK OUT (DYING LOOOL!)

5) I’M SPRUNG...I DO THAT WHEN I LIKE SOMEONE TBH.

6) THEY LIKE YOU, THEY WANNA BANG THEY HATE YOU, THEY WANNA BE YOU  (DEPENDING IF YOUR MAKE OR FEMALE)

7)  THEY JUST LIKE THE PHOTO, NO HIDDEN AGENDAS 

8) DEPENDS ON THE PERSON, COULD BE TO GET YOUR ATTENTION OR MULTITUDE OF REASONS

9) THEY FIND YOU ATTRACTIVE OR THEY’RE INTERESTED  IN PURSUING SOMETHING WITH YOU.

HARRY POTTER

AN EARLY CHRISTMAS PRESENT FROM MY BROTHER. TODAY I GOT TO SEE THE AMAZING SPECTACLE PLAY OF HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD IN LONDON. I CAN’T TELL YOU TOO MUCH BUT THE PLAY WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD, THE STORYLINE HAD ME HOOKED AND ON EDGE REFERENCING MAINLY FROM THE FILM GOBLIT OF FIRE. 

THE STAGE SET UP WAS FAIRLY MINIMAL WITH MULTIPLE PROPS AND SCENE CHANGES ALONG THE WAY, HOWEVER IT’S THE TRICKS AND EFFECTS THAT MADE THAT EXTRA DIFFERENCE!! #KEEPTHESECRETS

Wireless Festival 2015

Glad to say that I’ve attended Wireless Festival’15...let me tell you something thing... this is the first time EVER I have attend a festival // concert of any kind. (Danm where have I been) 

My dear Mummy brought me the tickets as a surprise graduation present (so sweet) she wrapped it up and put in an envelope along with a cute graduation card. Let me tell you that this envelope was hella thick!! my mind was telling me tickets to America?? or some serious racks £££. Either way I was over the moon when I saw the tickets and quickly took my excitement to Snapchat.. no one really understood my excitement though. I was the norm for them -___-

 I also had the pleasure of going with my big bro and his friends... he’s quite fun to be out with, however he talks way too much, just like my sister! Anyhoo The Wireless Festival was actually very very live, the atmosphere is something else, music was on point, just the whole vibe!!!!!

Wireless got me so excited I just had to create some illustrations of the main artists that performed on Saturday 4th July... so here are the artists I was vibzin with.

7.7

To mark the 10th year anniversary of the tragic London bombings, Ive created a small illustration featuring the stations that were hit, not to forget the London bus 30 too. As we remember the dear lives that were lost and people that were injured. We thank God we have moved on together and still remember those hurt, we ask God to be with the grieving family & friends also.
