For today's #CrazyRebelliousArt, I'm meant to share a photo of your studio or workspace. However, currently, this space does not exist. If I'm working or drawing on stuff I can promise you that I am most likely either A) sitting/lying on my bed, B) sitting on my bedroom floor, C) taking up the entire sofa in either the living room or the conservatory or lastly, D) working in the drawing studio/on one of the computers at Uni. So yep, I have no 'defined' space to work in although I would really like one. 

Today's #CrazyRebelliousArt is themed about art, or for me including, design techniques that you don't get to use in your own work. So I'm going to share a few of things I would like to do more and things I'd like to try!

Today I'm sharing a little colour palette created with the theme 'autumn' in mind! In the prompt from #CrazyRebelliousArt it does say to include artwork you've created using that colour palette but I don't tend to use colours like that that much so hears a photograph I took with colours taken from it instead! You can also see more photos from this day here. 

However, I do have some more 'autumn' inspired posts that you can check out. Here's an Autumn Pinspiration, Autumn Style, Autumnal Tag and Why I love Autumn!

What's your favourite Autumnal Colours?

Today's blog post from #CrazyRebelliousArt is focused around what our blog 'name/tagline' means. I think I've briefly covered it before but can't remember what blog post it's in so I'll just share it again! 

So a few years ago when I was nearing the end of my 1st year at College studying Graphic Design, we needed to create a brand identity and 'website' for ourselves. When coming up with my branding I didn't really want to just go for the standard of my name and after a bit of brainstorming I ended up going with "OhHay!".

I feel like this challenge is really helping me share new and more up-to-date versions of posts I shared ages ago! And this post is no exception. Last year I shared a post of some Inspirational Instagrams and now I'm back with a new list! 

It's been a long time since my last Recent Inspirations post and thought with today's prompt for #CrazyRebelliousArt being what's been inspiring you this week, what better time to share an updated version of it! 

Woo! I'm back on track with #CrazyRebelliousArt (well just, I have half an hour till it's the 13th). Apologise with there being a lot of back posting this week but at the end of last/start of this week I just wasn't really feeling it! And although I've got a bit of a cold right now I wanted to try stick and get back into this so I've been doing my hardest! Anyway, today's theme is to talk about "How you get out of a creative block" and I've spoken about this topic kind of before, but that was over a year ago! So today I thought I would just do a list of maybe like 20 or so (I'm just going to keep writing them till I can't think of anymore), that may help you over come creative block! 

Oh wow it's been an incredibly long time since I shared a little update about what I'm doing at uni! Actually, my last update was on my first day back at uni this year, oops! Anyway, with today's post for #CrazyRebelliousArt being a Photo Log of a piece of art work created today, I thought instead I would share what I've been up to at Uni since my last update!

Ahhh! So today's topic is to share 10 of your favourite quotes! I've always been a massive lover of quotes, with ones from books, shows, lyrics and whatever else I can somehow relate to one so this may be a little hard for me just to pick 10 but I will try!

List your 10 Favourite Quotes

1. "Feck perfuction" - James Victore

Definitely one for the days when nothing seems to be going right.

2. "Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time." - Thomas Merton

I just really like this. I've found that this year my art has sparked something inside me that has cause me to find something more about myself but also given me a sense of calm while doing it.

3. "You are, in fact, a mashup of what you choose to let into your life" - Austin Kleon

So true. IF you think life is bad to you then you'll never get over it.

4. "If you want creative workers give them enough time to play" - John Cleese

I'm not in the working part of the Creative Industries yet but this is so true! How can you be exciting without doing exciting things!?

5. "Don't compare your beginning to someone else's middle" - Jon Acuff

I really need to start remembering this one more...

6. "We're the authors of our lives" - Set It Off

Because it doesn't matter what folk say to you, it is your life and your decisions

7. "The work you do while you procrastinate is probably the work you should be doing for the rest of your life." - Jessica Hische

Hell to the yes!

8. "It might not be my weekend but it's going to be my year" - All Time Low

Forever the optimist. 

9. "A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies, said Jojen. The man who never reads lives only one." - George R.R. Martin

Why you should always have books around you

10. "The things that make you weird as a kid will make you great tomorrow" - James Victore

And it will make all the haters extremely jealous! 

So that's some of my favourite quotes, if you're interested to find more I like then you can have a nosy at my two Pinterest boards here and here (the second is more poetry). Anyway, comment below with some of your favourite quotes too! 

Today's #CrazyRebelliousArt was themed about sharing a book relevant to your field, but although I have huuuuuge collection of design books I am still making my way through them! So instead I thought I would share a Podcast that I listened a lot to last month when I was going through all of her old ones.

For today's #CrazyRebelliousArt topic, it is meant to be about whether you feel people should go to art school to pursue their dreams of say being an artist or designer. But since I'm still in my own education I feel like I'm in a mid point where I can see the good and bad sides of the education although I'm not at a speciality art school. Instead, I'm doing a post that I've been wanting to do for months since reading Charlotte's own about misconceptions about Fashion Management. 

For today's #CrazyRebelliousArt the topic is to speak about our process for a current project. I'm still not really in a place with uni work were I want to talk about it so I thought what else can I speak about, and obviously that's my #Create365 project!

For today's #CrazyRebelliousArt, the topic is to write about one of your biggest successes and why was it a challenge for you. At first I was kind of struggling on what to do this for because nothing came to mind straight away but after a think I realised that actually my most successful project not just in terms of popularity or sales but also in the process and the way it came about was my 2014 Calendar I made back in College.

Depending on how long you have read this blog for or followed me on social media you may have come across my Calendar before and possibly read this blog post speaking about putting it up for sale. Anyway, I spoke in that blog post a lot about the trouble (and success) I had the day of putting it up for sale and that but there is a ton more to the story that I haven't shared before!

For today's #CrazyRebelliousArt the topic is to share photos of your city and tell us what you like or don't like about living there. I'm not going to lie, I've had troubles with my hometown over the years- Stonehaven, but I think in recent years I've grown to love everything it has to offer. Even if not everybody I may know there is as up to par as the history, scenery or food is!

[Apologies for this being very photo heavy! Thought I may as well make the use of the photos I have.]

The topic for Day 2 of #CrazyRebelliousArt is "How did you get into your field?" but I kind of covered this topic a few weeks ago when I shared the Creative Journey tag so I feel it's a bit repetitive to speak about it again, so instead I'm speak about how I've been getting into hand lettering recently.

Hello! I can't believe it's November now! It doesn't seem real does it? Anyway this month I'm going to be attempting (again) to do a blog challenge for the month but this time it's the first year of this challenge. Set up by Judia of A Crazy Life and Brittany of Rebel Lux they have aimed to create 30 prompts that are more directed to those of us who are more creative bloggers. If you'd like to get involved as well you can join the event and find out more info at their FaceBook event here, or search up #crazyrebelliousart on twitter!

Anyway, the first topic of the month is based around what kind of art I do and why I'm passionate about it. But this is such a big topic in itself without even getting into thinking about design or photography as well!
