I'm back in Londinium! Yes, 1st term Creative Arts Academy is well and truely over. I've passed all my degree modules and exams and lo and behold, now that the holidays are here, I've caught a virus. Yes ladies and gentlemen, the time I get the eventually rest and I catch a bug from my course mates. *sighs The GP said there's nothing I can do about it medicine-wise, just drink lots of fluid and take a break.
It hasn't stopped me going around town though. I got my cheapo haircut at Toni&Guy Academy yesterday, ran errands for Mummykins in Chinatown AND bought a present for my course leader.
Then today I went to Cass Art's flagship store in Angel for their 10th year anniversary. I really wasn't all that bothered that they had been running for 10 years if I'm honest, what I really cared about was the 10% off and the goodie bag you'd get as well as the mince pie free-for-all. YES PLEASE! To add to that, my lovely friend Moira Lam (check out her blog moiralam.blogspot.com) works there too so was nice to see her.
So...want to see what I got?
Ok this was actually from yesterday. It's a MASSIVE lantern in chinatown and would look like a spaceship from afar. Not that I believe in spaceships.
This soup tasted much better than previous soups I've had. Why? It was FREEEEEEE!!!
Free canvas bag which I'll be putting my dance kit in no doubt.
*drools. £65 worth of watercolours for a fraction of the price. It's so yummy and looks like sweets. Can't wait to start painting on my free watercolour paper samples mwahahaha.
I plan to get lots of plain t shirts from Primark and iron on these cute designs. Thought they might make good presents. Or maybe I could sell them?
Nom nom A4 sketchbook I would do my internship work in. Not as yummy as my previous book with the vertical elastic band but for £3 can't complain.
Lovely heavyweight paper to draw Christmas cards on.
Join me in marvelling at these freebies sans the paint brush set I forgot to take a photo of. Isn't it great? I'm especially excited about using that yellow flat brush.
It's been a pretty fun art haul but I don't think I'll be buying any more art stuff anytime soon. Stay tuned for some watercolours I'll be doing in the next few days.
再見!
