Gay Adoption
15th November 2008
The image I did above was published this week in 'The Big Issue' Magazine, the article was on gay adoption. I feel that people should have equal rights. If someone is loving, caring and available to adopt I believe they should be able to no matter who they are or what their sexual preference is. There are so many children of all ages without families! I strongly feel that it would be wrong to not include someone because of their sexuality. Society need to be opened minded, because I feel if you exclude people, their thoughts and their ideas then the only one missing out is themselves.

Blogs
16th December 2008
The image above is for my friends blog: Hip Hop Lollipop. I feel that blogs are a great way for people to express themselves. Sometimes with this freedom people make blogs that are offensive. But this is the freedom of speech that some people are lucky enough to have. The largest example of this is the internet.

Drag
17th December 2008
Drag is a great topic that is often up for discussion especially in this day & age. I even did my dissertation at university on drag, my title was 'The Rise of the Male Queen' it can be downloaded above. I love the idea of being able to take on a new identity thats more than just putting on makeup and a costume. One can be come a life changing characters and I speak from experience as I have had the opportunity to not only dress as a man but to dress as a man dressing as a woman! One of my D&AD self-portraits represents my experience.
