Chrissie Abbott

Graphic artist who studied at London college of Communication. I was introduced to her work during a tutorial on Photoshop in which we practised her techniques of layering and using different mask styles and layer properties. I love the fantasy element of her work, and use of symbolism and imagery. #concept

Colours are beautiful and typeface is unique. Absolutely in awe of her portfolio.

the night I turned 20

I had a small gathering at my house last night for my birthday, chilled and intimate with the best people south of London. Mr Nikon came out and here are some edited pics of the night.

I don't have CS5 at my disposal but here's something I worked on this afternoon for fun... Planned on it being an image for my friend's birthday, but I think I'll just keep it as a sample, haven't worked like this in a while, so here's to practise and self inspiration...

Rihanna - Facebook finds

Was just scrolling down the homepage on FB and found a post about Rihanna's recent VACA. Love some of the candid shots, not sure who was taking the pictures, probably just holiday snaps, or more likely she hired a photographer to document the trip. Any which way here are some of the images which I LOVE.
