These are new photos that I have taken with either my iphone or canon 70D and then processed with VSCOCam or VSCO film. I love the subtle atmosphere it creates. You can also see more new work at: http://helencarter1.vsco.co/ More to follow!

Having started a photography course at St Kevins College in Dublin this September, I am finding little time for illustration and so for the present I have decided to focus on photography.  Therefore I will be posting on my tumblr website..... but I will be back here one day so don't go away :) Here is a link to my tumblr page http://helencarter1.tumblr.com/ See you there!!

These are photos that I've taken over the course of last year that I particularly like... I have taken thousands on my trusty iphone but self editing is always good :)

HERE I AM AGAIN!!

Whilst I did write that I wouldn't be using this blog again because I am working on a website... I haven't quite got there yet and haven't been very productive for a while but February is my month for getting everything in order from my garden to my work!  In the meantime here is just a little of what I have been working on recently. I will save the rest for when I have my snazzy new blog up and running! Hope you all had a great Christms and a very belated Happy New Year to all :)

THAT'S ALL FOLKS!

Escape the city!, a photo by helencarter1001 on Flickr.

I'm in Florida on holiday at the moment and mulling over what to do with this blog. I feel probably it is not really working in the way I would like and so I have decided to work on a separate website which will take some time. Thanks if you have taken the time to look at my work and I hope you'll come and look atmy website when it's up. To those who have taken the time to look and comment.... A big sloppy kiss ;))

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts

This is a story of love... doodle love... from start to the end. All done on my Ipad when I was at the hairdressers or watching television or waiting for something..... doodles pure and simple :)
