Shed Some Light on the Matter

I've been thinking about my projects for 2014. My first undertaking is to re-vamp the smallest bedroom in the house, from a study come store room for craft items, into a more functional 'doodle room'. I've been busy working out the details of what I want to achieve and what I need to do to get there. This had a strange effect of inspiring a new print. Otherwise known as going off on a tangent!

I've noticed a growing trend for illustrations using individual words shown in a variety of fonts and styles to display a well known phrase, quote or rhyme etc.

I did a simple doodle of one of my light fittings quite a while ago, one of those things you draw because you're not sure what to draw.

I thought, I could use this...as well as tell myself that I should be working out the details of my room make-over! Here's the quick sketch that I made on my pad, that should have contained a list of things to do.

Anyway, the tangent seemed a more exciting thing to do, so I took my initial idea and added some graphics and type, to create my own take on this typographical trend.

Tangent over, and its back to the to do list for me. I shall keep you posted on the room make-over as it progresses.
