Art student seeks husband for uni project

[JohnCenaFan28]

An art student has given herself three months to find a husband - as the final project for her college course.

Alex Humphreys, 23, is taking a visual communication course at Leeds College of Art and Design, reports the Daily Mail.

She began her Husband Project after becoming disillusioned with casual dating and so far, has 150 prospective suitors.

In June, she must present a body of work to examiners to complete her course. She hopes it will include a marriage certificate and a real man as well.

Miss Humphreys, from Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, said: "I'd been single for too long and didn't want to end up a spinster.

"I wanted do to a big concept art piece for my final project and so I put the two things together. I'm serious about finding the man I wake up next to for the rest of my life and marrying him before my course ends in June."

She has set up a website for her project which has attracted dozens of volunteers. She has also been set up by friends, tried speed dating and internet dating.

The initial criteria are simply that her suitor must be taller than her, male and with a sense of humour - but then it gets trickier.

"For many couples it can take years to decide whether they want to marry each other but as I only have a few months I'm sending out a questionnaire to assess whether we'd be compatible in the long term," she said.

Questions include "What was the last book you read?", and "Are you financially secure?". She also plans to interview the friends and family of her potential husbands as part of the project.
