Throughout the course I have been focusing on illustrating in a more simplistic style guided by improvised mark making to add energy and unpredictability to my images which has not only presented me with new and interesting challenges and ideas, but also helped me to enjoy the process much more than I did previously. Hopefully this is reflected in my project based on folklore and customs, a topic rich in characters, tales and history to illustrate.
This collection of artwork focuses on mostly local folk stories and represents the permanence and importance of storytelling, that persists through the ages and shifts to fit the values of an ever changing society.

Wolverhampton School of Art Graduate Showcase 2021
We are delighted to announce our end of year graduate showcase highlighting the work of our final year students in Art, Design and Screen based subjects.
Over the last few weeks we have had a film crew on site in the School of Art recording student experiences and their work. The last year, has undoubtedly been a huge challenge to students and staff in the School of Art. We have found ourselves working at home in make-shift spaces and often with limited materials and kit. Our staff and students have been hugely inventive in finding opportunities and outlets to keep learning live - and this, in itself, is a testament to our creativity and resilience as a sector.
