Dynamic Poses

Ink drawings of figures. I used a brush to lay down tone and then worked into it with a wooden, or bamboo stick. I tried to get the pose down as spontaneously as possible.

It took my images and decide to put then into a etching format, this was half to make the task interesting for me and half to test out etching methods. I wasn't overly happy with the final composition and exaction of the techniques. But as a learning process it was beneficial.

The drawings I did on site for the first couple, I tried to use an extreme perspective to loosen up as the first couple drawings can be stiff and uninspired more a walk through the motions than artistic interpretation.

Children Drawings

These images were close ups of my face as a child, I used 2h pencil to do the outline and used water soluble ink for some tone. Looking at it I can see the two portrait faces are out of proportion and the eyes are too large, putting the whole piece down.

Again with this one the proportions are all over the place and the features are in the wrong place again. I think adding tone would help to define the faces.

The line work on these, works well with a greater subtly within the line. The tone on the bottom one is a bit all over the place.
