Unit 10; The Natural World: Sketchbook Development #4

4/10/16
The fourth set of 4 leaves of the primary sketchbook were completed today:
 
A/B/C-For the first 5 sketchbook pages-and the page that is that is on the right hand side of the final two. These are all drawings and sketches developed from gathered primary research. These pieces were completed with the purpose of developing ideas surrounding the fauna based side of the natural world. These pieces were completed using pencil, biro pen, a chunky graphite stick, and pencils of varying gradients. Out of all these pages, I feel that the first two were the most successful-as both pieces were quick sketches, and evidence strongly, that my capability's of drawing quickly are evolving and developing rapidly.

For the sketchbook page number 4, the piece was collection of visual research, collected from a trip to Wigfield Farm.  This page was created by organising leftover primary research images-and applying it using a stick adhesive. The layout of this collaged page, is one that I am pleased with. The page feel energetic, busy and vivid. I could improve this page by collecting and adding more content. From completing this page,  I have obtained a more varied approach and perspective to the living side of the natural world.

D-For the final two sketchbook page on the left hand side-this piece was also completed with the purpose of exploring the animal orientated side of the natural world. From a textured perspective. The piece was created using, ink pen, biro and feathers that resembled the original owners, as closely as was possible. The best feature of this work was how the owl feather colours and soft texture was replicated in my own production.
