Sketchbook

On Saturday I did some investigative play into cubist-inspired art. This is something I began in the previous (Drawing Skills) module. I began with drawing one large spiral on my iPad mini. Instead of colouring in between the lines I deliberately scribbled over them using the spiral as a guide only rather than as a rigid framework.

Printed spiral sketch from iPad

I then drew onto a printed copy which I then glued into my sketchbook.

I drew a line bisecting the spiral

I then drew four seperate spirals in my sketchbook.

Bisected and highlighted with white pencil

I then thought about my violin shape.

I need to find a way to turn this design into a successful print. Perhaps by using the calograph technique.

I then drew a simple horse design and cris crossed it at strategic points with white lines. I then highlighted areas with white pencil again and then shaded in others using a B pencil.
