The Photo Shoot.......

 My photo shoot for Project AD209
.....Negotiated Project
 Model.....Jessica Broomfield
Photographer......Calum Knight
Designer......Charlene Baillie
 My dress was designed as part of project AD203 and was made during project AD208.
 My dress was designed around the theme of construction...
.....as my dress was designed based on the theme of construction I choose an on location shoot in a derelict  building, i felt this portrayed my garment well.

 I really enjoyed being on location and assisting with the shoot, choosing shots, angles and poses.

the young Vermeer......


The well-known Dutch master Johannes Vermeer was one of the world's greatest painters; however, there are only thirty-six of his paintings in existence. This winter, three paintings from Vermeer's early career will be reunited in a significant and rare display.
The Young Vermeer will show three paintings created between 1653 and 1656: Diana and her Nymphs (about 1653-54) from the Royal Picture Gallery Mauritshuis in The Hague; the National Galleries of Scotland'sChrist in the House of Martha and Mary (about 1654-55); and ‘The Procuress' (1656) from the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister Dresden.


The Young Vermeer presents a unique opportunity to compare directly these three important paintings and discover more about the development of one of the world's most celebrated artists.
