Similar to the very first task for this module, the challenge was too fast for my liking and I ended up with a scruffy unfinished piece, I took the task too literal and drew what was infront of me when i should have thought outside the box and potentially chose an area to study instead of the whole thing. However, we then moved onto figure 2 which allowed us to focus on the viewpoints to help get us out of the habit of drawing all we see. With these, I chose to keep the studies simple due to the time limit and thickness of the pen for such small boxes; because of this I do like the drawings (apart from the left handed one). Figure 3 I drew while we were having a break thanks to the structure snatching my attention, I was drawn to it and felt I had to draw this in some way. I wanted to try and make the creators vision come to life and my intention was to draw it almost as if it were real and not just cardboard. In the future I'd like to revisit this drawing, adding to the already observed shapewith further imagined textures. Figures 4&5 I enjoyed the most, while at first i did not like how they were turning out, when i had completed the pieces it all came together. Of the two my prefered is Figure 4, i managed to compose two different objects that were available to study and make them seem as one. Moving on, Figures 6-9 were drawn out of the studio, where we observed everything ourselves and sat in the moment drawing whatever it was that caught our eye. I had fun experimenting with different styles and mediums to see what effects I could achieve with each, playing around with the composition was also really fun and I am very happy with how these turned out. My only issue with this task is that i wish i created more pieces and explored a wider range of mediums, therefore if i get the chance to do something similar again i will make sure to do that.

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...
