idea development


Two images of drawings from my sketchbook, which i have then developed ideas from by request to illustrate a friends vinyl sleeve, the right image being the more recent and evolved idea.

Different mediums of shading, first is a colour pencil sketch, the second chalk.

Portrait, The Distressed Image

Po r t r a i t  - T h e   D i s t r e s s e d  I m a g e 
current experimental portrait shots work for college,
The top 3 and middle bottom self portraits were originally taken in digital using a long shutter speed to create the effect of movement, which i then inverted and used the print outs as paper negativesThen the bottom right and left images were also taken using long shutter speeds but on 35mm film, which i also made paper negatives out of the photographs to distress the image further.

old and recent paintings



The first image is a ink pen drawing which i then used water colours to bleed the ink and fill in, the second i used ink paint. Then the 3 last images, first one being a mix of water colours and oil paint, the second i experimented with texture and shape using oil again. The last piece i used water colours and ink paints.
