    Photography: When does a picture become art?The debate over photography being considered art is almost as old as photography’s debut in the 19th Century. It is frequently argued that a camera merely mimics what is in front of it, it is a simple and impersonal reproduction of an image and therefore cannot be construed as art, but is this true? When we analyse the relationship between art and photography, it always comes down to the opposition in mediums: the dichotomy between paint-brushes and cameras. A paint-brush certainly requires a ha
  • Illustrations
    IllustrationsThese are a selection of my illustrations which have all been completed using uni Pin fine liners in varying sizes. The first illustration is drawn from a photograph of a bird I saw in Morocco, I aimed to capture the quality of the bird's feathers whilst simulatanously creating a delicate and minimalist image.

    English Language Instructor
     - Paris, FranceFull Time
    I worked as an English Language Instructor in Paris, where I was responsible for taking on small groups of children and teaching them English. I engaged students through not only Babylangues resources but also through my own activities which were designed to achieve maximum interaction in small groups. In doing so I achieved optimal results by breaking down large learning tasks into manageable segments and by developing activities appropriate to students' learning abilities and ages. I built rapport with students and created a trusting atmosphere through sensitivity to students' strengths, weaknesses and personal learning styles, whilst working almost entirely in French.

    BA English Literature and French
     - London, United Kingdom
    Throughout my University curriculum I frequently chose modules focussing on Victorian Literature and the visual arts. My 10,000-word dissertation was also art-based, and allowed me to garner an abundance of knowledge in art’s role in literature in the 19th century. I aimed to demonstrate if and how the Victorian woman artist in Victorian literature could achieve artistic professionalism in the 19th century; with particular focus on what it meant to be a ‘professional’ artist and how the woman artist was perceived in Victorian Fiction.
