not so quick draw



4 of the 8 quick 2 minute sketches which took me more than 2 minutes.  Contrasted same image twice to see difference results with various media.


I drew this from a random photo and purposely went over my mistakes instead of my usual scrapping and starting again.  I then scanned in colour and b/w.




God knows what happened to the other 2 sketches (i am sure we did 8) anyway pretty awful results.  Lots of unnecessary lines. A lot to do....

Blade Runner






I wanted to create a narrative to show my model on the move.  A modern day industrial mechanised model escaping to a more idylic time, coming to rest in the final pastoral scene.

Played with filters and opacity.  Relatively quick as it seem to take direction itself.  I printed and adjusted as I went along.

Play time






 Experimenting with lines, scan settings, shading to give life,  mood,  and movement.

dissertation deliverables

Settling on the subject matter of the dissertation may have felt a long and frustrating one. I called it (the dissertation) my albatross, I carried it everywhere with me.  I  finally pressed the send button and the proposal was despatched to Robert.  Ah a bit of respite  I thought before it boomerangs back.  But no, in with my emails this morning there was the proposal, with further instructions.
