Illustration Project Scans III

HELLoo gentle readers both ladies and gentlemen I hope you are happy and healthy

Assessment period is looming so I may not be able to update as often as I'd like o(
So there may be less posts on food and more posts on illustrations (since that is that is due! oh if only we had food-chasing assessments)

Anyway here are the final two scans from my illustration project, they are meant to accompany a newspaper article about how acquiring possessions is a curse / addiction. and all the shopping addicts now face Supreme Crisis Zone with the deepening recession hahaha

Consumerism Illustration Project - FishGolden Carp

Consumerism Illustration Project - MermaidHalf-life

T-shirt design here
Tote Bag design here

In other news my mum has hijacked the TV to watch Chinese dramas from 5pm to 2am every night, so I have come to rely 100% on the MasterChef website for episode updates

hooray for the internet :D

anyway (MasterChef Rant): I've missed almost every night of MasterChef this week because of uni or uni projects! And tonight I came home today to find that oh-my-god MasterChef had been taken off Youtube (DIES) but then joy of joys discovered that all the episodes are on the MasterChef website, click http://www.masterchef.com.au/episodes.htm to watch! They come complete with the Campbell's REAL chicken stock ad that plays in every MasterChef ad break haha

Illustration Project Scans and Miniature Patisserie Items!

SOMETIMES after dinner I really feel like dessert but my stomach is just to full to fit it in. This makes me go sadface - but fortunately if you've ever felt the same way, these dainty treats are the perfect size to satisfy your sweet tooth without making you feel like you've swallowed a cow

hehe these remind me of the Emperor's Garden cake display


These are actually dollhouse goodies made by etsy seller, miniaturepatisserie, so you can't actually eat them hehe. You CAN however put them in your living room to surprise your guests.... and prepare them for when you whip out a tray of real custard tarts :D

In other news, here are two scans from my illustration assignment, which is now COMPLETE and handed in, woohooo :D

MasterChef Australia!

'MASTERCHEF IS ON!!' - the roar echoes through the entire house

'YAY, I'M COMING' my sister yells back

Are you watching MasterChef? MasterChef is the biggest culinary competition to hit Australian television sets. It's currently only three episodes in, but we are already addicted to the show :D
If you missed the first and second episodes of MasterChef Australia you can watch (and rewatch) the first clips here (thank you Youtube you rock)

Cooking auditions around Australia
The abacus beads by the artist chick Po
(hehe doesn't her name remind you of Kung Fu Panda =) looked really interesting. I think it's great how the judges try to keep MasterChef centred around simple food... not necessarily plain, since presentation is important, but more like there's an emphasis on cooking what you know and grew up with because that is what you understand best!


There's also the concept of good cooking being less about dressing up food all fine and fancy, and more about knowing the best way to bring out the flavours of your ingredients. MasterChef makes you think =)

And I totally want a slice of the law chick's banana tart tatin.


You can't get sick of watching this awesome promo

Tomorrow night is the first elimination challenge in MasterChef for all the contestants who didn't pass the onion-cutting challenge tonight, so it should be super interesting! (hehe I am secretly hoping for a dan-tart-making challenge later on)

MasterChef runs at 7pm on Channel 10 every night from Sunday to Friday.
