animation king charles 8/9/16

Today we created a work of art on adobe illustrator, firstly we got a picture of king Charles 2nd and then after that we edited it to look like this. The black and white one is the original, obviously!
at first i locked in the background and started to outline certain things at a time, and once things where outlined i started using the filling toll and then deleted the background to see it on its own and this is the final piece.

induction day 6.09.16

induction day

Coming into tower hamlets college scared me little but i have got used to it and honestly i think i am gonna enjoy it here and its not all day like school, thats just boring but i have enjoyed today, we met each other done some team building activities, then just had a little assembily and got on with the day just making friends and doing activities with each other which i think is the best way to start the year.

Today i came into college not knowing what to expect at first, but after the first hour or so i felt more welcome than i ever have before in any other education i have been in, college is a lot different that school and also makes you an independent person.

my form tutor Steve butler has really helped me the last few hours to become myself and actually make friends instead of being quite like i always am, this does mean a lot because its hard for me to speak to people without being to quite.
