Today I braved the rain and managed to get to the V&A quite early. After visiting the disconcerting 'Tomorrow' installation by Elmgreen & Dragset, I took in as much as possible for inspiration before I got too hungry (the cafe was ridiculously busy and expensive and even though I had budgeted myself a captive audience priced snack I still balked). I started off sketching but resorted to taking snaps on my camera phone, hence why the pics aren't great quality. Charles Rennie Mackintosh fireplace around 1904. Iron with ceramic tiles. Pot by John Ward 1994 and Optical Pot by Elizabeth Fritsch 1980 Another pot by Elizabeth Fritsch (far right).

Whilst I'm on a 'work break' between VFX projects I thought I'd make myself busy and indulge in something a lot more creative. I've wanted to do this e-course for a while and finally bit the bullet and signed up. I'm into week 4 of Module 2 and it's really good to have briefs to work to. However I find it harder to get inspiration as soon as I have any limitations as to how to approach a new design. I've always loved 50's textiles and these 1950's tiles on Flickr that I just stumbled upon provide some ideas for motifs.
