Waddle waddle

 I started by looking at ducks and creating collages using magazines and newspapers.


 I then developed some of my own collages by adding a background using acrylic and textures from magazines.

Moleskin


Some work from my personal moleskin sketchbook. :)

Angler Fish Animation

For my animation project, we were given the brief to animate a character in a short animation. I chode to use an angler fish as my character and did some character development through images on the internet. I then chose my favourite drawing of the character and started making moving fish from card and split pins, i also created dark underwater backgrounds as well with sponges and acrylic paint.

I then made a few mood boards with all of my research and scanned in images to send off to Falmouth Uni with some of my other work.

Screen Printing

For the next project, which i've only just started is based on the work by  Brian Hubble. We first took an image of a street with interesting angles and houses. I took one from just around the corner from my house, it wasn't that interesting but i didn't want a lot of cars in my image from busy roads. I first looked at artists and techniques to try out and i found an artist called Jonathan Klassen which i looked at because i like his colour scheme and the way he has unusual surfaces. I Then painted over a collage of text from a newspaper with white emulsion, from the i started to add block colours to go behind the screen prints which will be done later on. I added texture using Klassons technique with a sponge adding white to create tones. I then added white lines to define some parts of the image, such as the pavement. Finally i created a sun with an orange pen and paint.
