Principles and Practice of Illustration. Sketchbook Pages 16 - 23

Left: This is the start of my ticket letter pressing, I had done my research by looking into tickets I currently had and my ticket to Hogwarts. This was my fist time doing letter press so I had to learn all about how to properly set the type and how to add the ornaments to create the ticket.

Right: Here you can see I started experimenting with different mark making techniques to get a rough idea for my poster. I created the skyline using the visual audio from the music piece. I have also placed one of the tickets I created on from letter pressing on this page. 

Life drawing with a twist.

Here are the drawings from our life drawing with a twist workshop. Different items such as toys and random objects where placed onto a projector and we had a few moments to draw what we saw. Having such a small time period to create images was challenging but something I enjoyed and I felt like I learnt a lot from  pushing myself not to be so precious about my sketchbook. 

Trying to create a narrative from life drawing with a twist. Using the same techniques as before but expanding on the images to try and see or create narrative within them.

This monoprint of Kraftwerk member Wolfgang Flür is the final piece that I worked into for a small task in the workshop. I have added blushing cheeks to tie it in with my research on an article from the magazine Jackie which was popular in the 1970s. I also added white acrylic paint to help separate Wolfgang from the background. This image was created to help connect my research and workshops.
