Update

I haven’t been able to post the last week two weeks, mainly because I finally have got the flu and I haven’t finished any of my artwork that I’m working on, or been anywhere. So I’ll just show you some stuff that I’ve been working on, maybe search my infinate gally of photos and put some more pictures up for you, but for now I’ll leave it as this.

Using my woodburning tool

The background for my drawing. The drawing assessment is to draw on a non-fine art material or subject, so I’m drawing a topographical map, using my woodburning tool, on wood then using two photos of mine as the main subject ontop.

These are the photos that I’m using, if you can see it, I’ve just roughly drawn it ontop with charcoal, still not sure how I’m going to colour it, with soft pastels or ink/watercolour, need to think about it more..

For my painting class, painting my sub-culture.I didn’t know how to do this, so I’m using animals as a representation of people. I don’t refer myself to a particular sub-culture, to me, I’m an outcast, can’t properly fit-in to this modern society, I’m not like anyone else. I know I can only relate to my fiance, jesse, hence the birds in the centre, represnting two ‘love birds’ I gues. Then appart from him I think I can relate to my family, which will be little meerkats in the background, they were the best animals I can think of that would best relate to family.
