Self Portrait 2


 

I am extremely happy with how this self portrait has turned out. I have experimented with ink mark making and the composition of the entire image. While preparing I decided to play about with poses for this task and believe these were a good fit for this chosen composition. I also decided to change the scale a little so they weren't all the same size. I thoroughly enjoyed working with ink like this and will definitely keep using it.

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.

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 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
