I've set out my work below in the style of a kickstarter page, based on what I saw while scrolling through similar projects. Who am I: I am currently a third year illustration student, studying at the University of Cumbria. This game will be part of a project I am working on, so this is a massive and important learning experience for me. As well as giving me experience in the field, I hope having a physical object at the end will give you, the backers, as much joy as me. The Game: Themed around the meaning originally given to flowers in the Victorian times, combined with an art nouveau aesthetic, The game itself is a simple top trump style game. Each player will start at 0 and draw a card, either moving up or down the ladder depending on what number you draw. Cards may also have additional effects depending on the last card you played. The first player to reach 10 is the winner and anyone who makes it to -10 is out of the game. Each card will be the standard 2.5 x 3.5 inch size and the deck will contain 30 cards. The game board will fold out to be . The game will come in a box containing all the cards, the board, folded, and a sheet of player counters you can pop out of the card. Process of designing: All the cards will be hand drawn and painted, then scanned into the computer to add the finishing touches. What the money is going towards: Your money will exclusively go towards covering the cost of producing, printing and shipping the game. rewards: Tier 1, £2: General support, Will receive a personal thank you and a digital background Tier 2,£10: Will receive a personal thank you, digital background and a copy of the game once complete.

Task 1, T-shirts: I decided to make a series of sauce based shirts for this task. Strange or nonsensical images on t-shirts are a popular subject of humour, at least in the corner of the internet I live on, so I think at least some people would buy them. The biggest reason I designed them though is purely because I would like to own them, to match the sauce shirt I already found in a charity shop. My favourite the fruit sauce, then tomato sauce and soy. I liked the designs themselves, however, I thought they could use some refining. I recreated them as lino prints as well as digitally in an attempt to make them look more like a screen printed design. The digital designs worked better. However, the texture from the lino print is better, I just need paints that aren't out of date.
