My days at Ealing College of Higher
Education were very tough and challenging but
exciting too. I learnt many aspects of Art and Design. There was an
opportunity for photography work which I loved very much. With this
method we created a cartoon strip
with photos and was able to process and develop our work in the darkroom!
I also had a chance to do woodwork where I made a book/video and TV
stand - I still use this box of wood work!!
The exciting part of learning was the silkscreen printing on T-shirts as
we
could design our own and print. At the end of the process we passed them
down to the Fashion studio for their catwalk show! However in the end
you yourself could wear them, if they were good enough!!
After my fun and hard days of
studying and eventually achieving my Diploma in Graphics Design, I couldn't
wait to get out in the working world to use my
skills and talents!

the local newsletter. As usual I worked towards deadlines producing
pictures and also did the usual cut and paste for the printing
office.
