Life Drawing 3

Figure 1

This is one of my favourite pieces which I have created during life drawing this semester. The use of various tones and ink really stands out to me, I really like how it all combines together to create the whole image. I will consider using this technique in the future.


Figure 2

This is another strong sheet of mine. I really like the entire composition and use of different mediums explored to show tone and detail. To add to this, I really like the use of the triangle and circle to break up the sequence of squares/rectangles.


Figure 3

These two drawings I believe do not show my progress well and know I could have done alot better here. I will continue to improve ones like these.


Figure 4

This exercise was fun to participate in. Having to use certain shades on certain parts of the view made it a fun challenge. I did enjoy this and I am happy with how they turned out. 


Figure 5

Despite some of the figures having really awkward and unproportionate limbs, I am very happy with how this piece turned out. The movement of the model can be seen gazing from right to left. I would like to do another exercise like this one in the future.


Figure 6

This excersise was more difficult than the others. It is quite tricky trying to draw the model to the actual scale and size in proportion to the grid around them. While I did have fun doing this, there are others I had more fun with.

Drypoint

Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3   The drypoint session was one of my favourite workshops which we have done this semester, I adore how the final prints turned out. The process was fairly simple which I did not expect at first, it was quite easy to etch into the acrylic plates. I loved the fact that no matter how lightly you may have scratched the surface that mark is still going to show up. I drew my design in fineliner before tracing it over the acrylic. The etching process felt very similar to using a fineliner or biro therefore I was comfortable drawing in this process. During the printing process we had the option to leave ink on the plate or to wipe it off, in the figures you can see that i left it on to create various tones of shadow. However, I do wish i did a print where i did wipe the ink off to see clearly all the marks I made. I will definitely consider using this process again in the future. I am really happy with how they all turned out.

Life Drawing 2

Figure 1 This first sheet I am not happy with, as there feels to be a lack of experimentation with mark making techniques. Yet overall, I do believe there is nothing significant about these drawings. Figure 2 I believe this sheet to be better than the first as it shows the journey of the model getting up and rising.I also believe it is evident that I have explored some mark making techniques. I am proud of this one also in the way that at a first glace none of the proportions look massively awkward. Figure 3 I really like this piece, not only for the fact it is in ink but I had fun experimenting with the models outline and adding in minor details to the models silhouette. I believe it could be quite successful as a screenprint and would love to experiment with it in the future. Figure 4 This is my favourite out of the three ink drawings and the one I picked to go forward with to screen print. While making this I felt inspired by traditional Japanese mark making techniques and the e...
