Little Wing

OKay, so I know I've been out of touch... no apologies- I've been too busy. here's some work :)

This is from way back in reading week- we had to take one of our drawings from drawing week and create an 8 page narrative book. I didn't use any of my drawings, but used a photograph I took of my friend Emma's new yellow raincoat.
'Little Wing' is my second most favourite song by Hendrix and I decided to incorporate that into the narrative. I don't know how successful this is but- here you go. Also, the second last spread- the smiles don't look like smiles, I know. They look like bananas, confetti and at one point I recall someone mentioning nail clippings... ahh well, I tried.
















The reason behind the limited pallet of three colours is simple: I was going to screen print it at some point and three colours are a good number to work with :)

Some fishy business




Yes, I know. It's been a while. But I've been SO BUSY! Hopefully, over the next few days, I will put up more stuff.

Until then, here's a little sketch I did over the summer of a fish eating a fish eating a fish.. Just something to keep me entertained.

Take a Look at a Book

Following the collage images from the previous day, we were to create a narrative in an eight page book, choosing one of our sins... I chose pride...









Collage project

We were given a day and a half, seven sins and the aim to create a collage outcome.
The first half day was to be used to create images of some of the seven sins.






Pride






Wrath







Sloth

Some Drawings








The above are just drawings of random objects that I have. The fish is a key chain, as is the shoe and the parrot is a little wooden pendant...

Little Fish Big Fish

For the next two weeks, we have to draw, draw, draw...
Our brief involves experimenting with mark-making and exploring expressive drawing techniques.
We can basically draw anything we want I guess...

So I drew a fish





Photoshop and I are becoming friends, but it's still early days
