Me Drawings

Another of the briefs was to practice drawing children by using ourselves as reference. Therefore, I have drawn heads, proportions and extremities from photos of my younger self to better achieve the task. It is difficult for me to draw without thinking of the detail first, so proportions were challenging to draw. I believe the hands and feet studies are the most correctly proportionate drawings.

I sketched from old photos using pencil. I have not omitted any drawings and have scanned them in the best quality I could, though some of the linework is difficult to interpret.

Nonsense Sequence

One of our briefs was to make a nonsense sequence, including the cardboard box masks we had previously made. The meaning of this task was to get us to not fall into the trap of conventional visual storytelling. By constructing a sequence from random elements and poses, it is possible to create something unique.

I created my sequence so that it was not restrained by panels, adding to the randomness of it. It was coloured with pencils in a non-selective way. By mixing unusual colours with these elements, I can further emphasise nonsense. The story of the sequence follows a knight who slays a dragon in a business suit; a spirit of creatures then appears before the knight.
