FMP

Anyone whose on there art foundation are proberbly haunted by those single 3 letters 'FMP'!!
FMP stands for final major project, the last thing we'll be doing in this one year course and the only thing that determins the grade we come away with...
so yer slightly freaking out.
so heres the basis of what i'll be doing:
TITLE: implode, explode
........ yer thats about as far as ive got, worrying i know!

So im home in Manchester now on my easter break, and already started my gallery visits. The Whitworth gallery (which has a wallpaper exhibition on, hmm) wasnt too inpiring, however i did come away with one good thing...in the gift shop i found this book which is released every month: Textiles: The journel of Cloth and Culture. Its great for artists and designers, heres the website:
