Christmas book haul






This is just quick post on some of the books I received at christmas. I've been wanting the 'Savage Beauty' book for awhile now so when I looked on amazon I found that you could get 'Genius of a generation' and 'Pattern magic 2' as well as 'Savage Beauty' in a package. I really recommend doing it this way rather than buying books like this separately, you will save so much money! Once I have looked at them all properly I will be doing a review.

Laura Laine










I have fallen in love with Laura Laine's work. I had briefly seen it before as her edgy illustrations are very famous but I got given a copy of 'The new age of feminine drawing' for christmas which included some of her pieces and it astounded me how much detail her illustrations have. I love the fluidity and movement that carry her drawings from one page to another. Laine has done pieces for Vogue, Elle, Zara and Gap to name but a few, and I believe we haven't seen the last of her work yet..
