Week 3: Sketching and Drawing

Our first task was to take a class trip down to Waterloo, where we split off to do some location drawing. We had to do around 10 small sketches – I chose to focus more on figures and characters, so I looked around for people or situations that seemed interesting enough to capture.

My favourite one ended up being the middle right, of a girl standing by the wall to look across the river and buildings. I quite liked the use of negative space, and her being taller than the buildings. I chose this one to use for my final piece, which had to be a comic of sorts, where your original drawing is the middle, and you have to make up the beginning and end.

I decided to go with a lighthearted fantasy theme.
