<h5>Pearls of Wisdom</h5>

Hello lovely readers, ♥

I am incredibly sorry for this extensive delay in regards to updates on my blog, but university is so demanding I barely find time to properly feed myself and sleep!

"Rich honesty dwells like a miser, sir, in a poor house, as your pearl in your foul oyster."
~ Shakespeare.

For this post I will be focussed on the colour I am most inspired by at this moment and that is white. Simple bright white or pearlescent shades reflect pristineness and purity, untainted by other elements and are just existent singularly. It is the simplicity of the shade that draws me in, like the blank sheet of white paper that I face before beginning a new illustration or design, it is the stepping stone to something more, the foundation which is built upon by layers of various mediums; the empty canvas with so much potential. I feel that paper is largely unappreciated and taken for granted and in it's most simplest form, it can be the starting point for something wonderful to be created. I particularly note this in the paper art that I have observed, as well as these paper eyelashes by Paperself. I just adore how beautiful the shade white can be, it is so lovely and clean and complacent. Sometimes the most simplest of things can be the most beautiful.

I hope to be able to blog again later this week, as I have one week off before I go into my packaging design intensive course (pray for my soul, I'm not sure I'll be able to make it as I am only just recovering from finishing a harrowing 1st semester!) But at least I will be getting it out of the way quickly (it is a 3 week course) and it will hopefully make my final semester easier to deal with, then this degree will all be finished! It is so scary to think about, these years have flow by so quickly! But I am still considering coming back for a masters/honours or a specialisation diploma. We shall see what happens!

Until next time, I shall leave you with this cute song I have been coveting recently. x
