I'm going to try my luck in London this weekend, so does anyone know any big art stores there that I can find portfolio accessories/wallets etc. at? Cheers.

I'd head to London Graphics - and don't forget to claim your student discount either!

Thanks, I'll just be in central London, so ideally an art store in that region would be good. Since Atlantis is in East London, I don’t think I'll have time to travel there with all the other things I need to do.

I wish Tindalls/Heffers opened up in London :tongue:

as right now it's only in the East Anglia region and I have so many Platinum cards/vouchers from them since I'm their most regular customer lol. I haven't got a student card, but have been meaning to get one (would save a lot).

I just noticed London Graphics have got a store in Covent Garden, which is good since I'll be there anyway. Cheers mate.

Cass Arts Flagship store in Islington by Angel is good. Its not as big as Atlantis but still cheap with a lot of stuff reduced. Im not sure how cheap wallets etc will be though.

nope, i just made it sound complicated...sorry, i was just wondering whether you're going to base your task assignment on actualy places (ie: drawing a parking lot for example), or whether you're going to do something abstract and philosophical. though i'd wait untill the task is sent and the offer recieved. good luck anyway.

it just occurred to me that, after possibly spending months of hardcore portfolio making to finally produce a masterpiece of a portfolio, there's in fact a chance that you'll mess up the task and NOT get asked to the interview! lol. that would be funny.

ok so after 1 week of sketching and a idea harvesting (asking for trouble by not actually comopleting anything) i have come up with a bunch of ideas, the 6 most stimulating of which contain 4 non-literal spaces.
do you think this is a bit wanky/ smartarsey?
did the people who got offers have more down to earth spaces but illustrated them really well?

I don't think it's what spaces (whether it exists in reality or not) that matters, it's how you illustrate and express them (through your response) as a sequence of ideas.

a sequence as in the 6 places should be linked?
i'm thinking of doing mine in 2 pairs of themes and 2 random things.
is this too messy a response do you think??

no they don't need to be linked at all. all 6 of mine were completely different, not related.
