This module/ brief has got me really excited. I love its focus on drawing alone, It really gives me the freedom to just dive in and experiment. I can't wait to use tones of colour and to maybe play around with things like collage.
What did I struggle with?
I feel like I got trapped doing a couple of my drawings in quite a flat cartoony style. This is a style which is easy to resort to but I don't think that it is very interesting, it has no character. I'd like to try to stay away from it and to continue to explore different ways of translating an image.
How do I want to move forward?
I really wanted to create a creepy, surreal American Horror Story style circus but I got initially sidetracked creating more jolly images. I think that this happened naturally because in order to create something weird and creepy I would need to create quite a layered, atmospheric image. This is something which is challenging but I'd like to explore it further.
I also really enjoyed drawing the contorted bodies of the acrobats and I think that there is lots of interesting directions I could take these images. i.e. plating around with line, tone, shape etc.
