I had so much fun taking part in this workshop, it is another one of my favourites. I drew out my desired design as seen in Figure 6 and sparated it into Figure 5 and Figure 7 for the separate colours, which in the end were red and blue retrospectively. This was another task thast enhanced my digital drawing skills which are improving already. The inspiration for this piece is what I imagined the Gryffindoor Common Room to look like, with the animal that I am most refered to sitting on the windowsill. The original idea was to have my character sitting there instead however the small creature seemed the more effective option; to which I am glad I chose to use them. The only complicated thing to take into consideration is the overlapping of the two colours picked, as some places may seem too dark meaning the ink would layer up and not dry. This is a process that I would love to experiment with further in the future and produce many more prints.

Knowing me, knowing you

Figure 1    Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 4 Figure 5 Figure 6   While this task was initially a struggle for myself with the very quick observational drawings, I did end up enjoying the task overall. I am not overly happy with my results as during the task I struggled mentally with the very fast pace that we began with; I was simply not used to it and have always struggled with this challenge. I am hoping to get better with the quick pace and produce some work that I actually like. Figure 1 and Figure 3 are the two pages that I dislike the most, the entire composition and style does not feel like my own and I am not proud to call it mine. Moving on to figure 6, this was our last piece of the day and I quite enjoyed it, I chose charcoal so I could be a little more experimental and it helped me alot. I had alot of fun making that piece and believe it is the strongest of them all. If I were to do things differently I would choose different mediums such as a stronger ink or thicker pens to give

Screen Prints

Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 Figure 4 Figure 5 This screen printing workshop was very fun to attend and very simple due to my experience with screen printing during college. I really enjoyed experimenting with background patterns and colours. I will always enjoy screen printing and just wish I had the time to experiment with more things; and have the time to create more prints.  

Life Drawing 1

Figure 1 While i am not thrilled with the outcomes I believe this sheet is very effective in terms of experimentation and mark making. The last two in pen and ink I believe are the strongest. Figure 2 This piece was the first one I drew during the session. I am not happy with it but at the same time I am as it shows the begining of my life drawing journey. Thus being able to compare it later on to see if there have been any improvements. One thing I would like to note is that I belive my marks are very stiff and I needed to be more free with them. Figure 3 While I do not like the two drawings on the very left of the page, I believe that this sheet is once again strong in regards of markmaking. The other three images are strong to show a variety of marks and how they can be used. Figure 4 This sheet may be my favourite out of the five, due to the fact I believe it showcases markmaking and experimentation. I am really happy with how this one turned out and it is already a huge improvemen
