repost report retort

i am currently waiting to hear from the film crew when i am needed for filming this documentary, i have a horrible feeling however that it's not happening anymore and that no-ones going to tell me!

such is life i suppose, especially my own!

will report back within a day or two with hopefully good news!!

good news, then bad news, then annoying news lol

Happy new year and all that jazz!

I have a good feeling about this year.

I will be relaunching the tattoo project at some point, hopefully after some more publicity which actually explains the project properly in my words! I want people to be able to understand it, to be able to get in touch with me about it, to help me, to involve themselves in art.

Before i continue i'd like to point out i am a little bit drunk, the pink wine goes to my head!
Oh dear :-)

I had some news about possibly appearing on a documentary on channel 4, fingers crossed it happens, it would help me greatly.

Uni starts again in just over a week, i am very excited, can't wait to get back i love school so much! <3 <3 <3

The guy who bought my chest piece hasn't been in touch or paid so i am assuming he no longer wants a part in this, i am revoking ownership!!! You snooze you lose..........harsh but true.

Must sleep, night all x

the snow has melted, real-time is upon us

Merry Christmas everyone!

I haven't been on for a while because i've been eating anything i can get my hands on and drinking everything else :)

The auction hasn't gone as well as hoped, my chest piece sold though, i feel a little sad because i love it and it doesn't belong to me anymore!!

Christmas was fun, i got lots of goodies for my room and or studio, a fun piggy bank to start saving up for next year, there's already a few notes in it but i'm pretty sure they'll be getting used soon!

I am currently sitting here with hair dye in, preparing myself for fancy dress tonight, Betty Boop :) so todays post is only a short one, hopefully enough to tide you over till my next post!?

Much love x

A tattoo a day keeps glumness away

After a very busy working weekend i have updated my ebay page and now have 7 tattoos up for sale!
Pegasus, my chest piece, butterfly, 'life wont wait', skelingtons, 'mum' and 'dad'.
Phew, quite a lot, but still no bids!
A bit of a bummer, however, it's not about the money, it's mainly an art project. To make money to go towards my tuition fees would be an amazing bonus!

I had an update article in the paper again on thursday, its all good publicity.
Tomorrow morning i'm going to be interviewed on BBC radio lancashire about the project so fingers crossed it goes well!!
I always get massively stuttery when put on the spot so here's hoping i sound like a normal person lol, as normal as i can be anyway!

confusion and comments :-/

A lot of people have been asking me to explain my project to them because the article has them confused.

To put it really really simply, i am selling the ownership of my tattoos to anyone who would like one. With your new tattoo you will receive a photograph of it, a drawing of it, a written explanation behind the tattoo, and regular updates. For example, if i'm at the till in asda and the lady putting my shopping through starts up a conversation i'll tell you about it!

Like a song-writer sells their lyrics, i'm selling my tattoos.

I've read some comments that say my idea is "lazy" and "faux-intellectual".
Not the case really though is it? I think it's quite an inspired idea and after all, to quote Damien Hirst, "i am the artist and it is my idea, therefore it is art".
I designed the tattoos with MrF, and 2 of my roses were designed by a tattoo artist in Manchester called Rachel. I do not have £3000 worth of ink on my body, far far far far so far from it!!

Apparently i am in The Sun, a national newspaper, whit woo go me!
I've also been approached by a company who will help me spread the word and hopefully raise some more money.
