I have recently completed a BA(Hons) degree in Illustration at the University of Derby.
I have been taking commissions for the past 4years, I specialise in realistic portraits, mainly dogs and people, although I am trying to expand in to other animals.
Please feel free to contact me at annewassell@gmail.com if you wish to commission me, and check out my website http://annewassell.daportfolio.com/ for more of my work.
I hope you enjoy :)

I has dreadlocks!! :D

I have 2 naturals that i am going to let mature (i think), and i have 2 syntethics. One is about the same length as my hair, but the other one is considerably longer. It looks a bit daft, considering the face that the rest of my hair is just it’s normally frizzy self, but i really don’t care. I’m quite enjoying being a weirdo at the moment :D

I am considering leaving the 2 synthetics in for the Rammstein gig i’m going to on friday, what do people think??

Dreadlocks! :D

Much to my parents disappointment, i am playing around with putting dreadlocks in my hair :D I want synthetics, but i can’t afford them at the moment and i can’t con my mum in to putting them in for me, so i’ll just have to dread my real hair for the moment. It look completely rediculous but i actually don’t care. I’m enjoying looking like a freak. Haha. I’ve even wrapped one of them! Although they will have to come out again tomorrow night as it was supposed to just be an experiment because my hair needs washing.

Anyway, this is me starting on my new years resolutions, i am being more confident and caring less about what other people think and more about what i think and want for myself. Hopefully this way of thinking is here to stay :)

Gahhh! Why am i still loosing weight?! I try and eat properly (although i am skipping breakfast at the moment because it makes me feel sick) and i am still loosing wieght! I know, i know, i shouldn’t complain, but when i breathe in i can see my ribs! And my trousers don’t fit anymore :( Although i can now wear skinny jeans and look good in them, which is a bonus :)

Ok, grumbling over.

Hope you all have a lovely Christmas!

Think it may be abit too detailed to be a tattoo design, but it would still look awesome on someone :)
