SeaLife Centre - Birmingham

I took myself off the to Sealife Centre in Birmingham today to get some inspiration for my Camo mood boards.
Not much to say, so here's some pictures - because a picture tells a million stories and I now want a jelly fish as a pet. This has given me some great ideas for some embroidery and print around this theme.

Group tutorial and an inspirational lecture

So this morning, bright and early I had a group tutorial with one of the lecturers, Heather.
