The maze book was very handy when location drawing as although it
is small, it consists of plenty of pages. I enjoyed the sequencing of the book
as it changes your view of each drawing depending on how it is opened. I feel
that these are stronger than my river walk drawings as there is a wider range
of perspective and wider use of materials.

Week 8 Location Drawing, River Walk
This week I aimed to use materials that suited the tone and
characteristics of my chosen locations. I think soft pencil worked particularly
well when trying to present my more peaceful, quieter locations, whereas
charcoal was useful when working on brickwork and creating gestural markings
for busy areas. In future I would use a wider range of materials and apply
colour when location drawing.

Week 7
During my final life drawing session I really tried to focus on
the key components I have learnt over the module. As my time scale was slightly
longer I spent more of my time planning and mapping out the body on my page. I
feel that planning was one of my weaker areas at the start of the module as I
did not necessarily achieve the best composition for my drawings effecting the
scale and proportions of the model. In my opinion I feel that my final drawing
from this session is one of my strongest.

Week 6 Life Drawing & Movement
This has been the most challenging life drawing method for
me so far as the markings have to be made quickly. The lines are gestural representing
a particular movement. I have produced multiple sketches to present the stages
of the models movements. This meant working back over each drawing adding more
gestural marks each time.

Week 5 3Dimensional Tone
I feel the use of tone has definitely added a three
dimensional element to my work. My previous drawings have tended to appear
quite flat, but by using black, white and a mid-tone I think the body has more
shape. The use of tone also emphasises the areas of light and dark.
