Figure drawingThis week we continued to work with Tommy on developing value in our figure drawings. This was our last week working with him, and in the end I'm not sure how I feel about this style of figure drawings. In my opinion, my figure drawings look best when I have free reign to start and finish where I want. While for some people, this method of building up with gestures might be helpful, I prefer to focus primarily on the negative space. I found that with gesture, many of my proportions were inconsistent and by the time I realized it it was too late to fix anything without erasing an entire body part. HOME projectMy home project is not moving along as quickly as I would like. I have gotten pretty far into the design of the tattoo, but I want to spend more time on it seeing as it will be going on my dad permanently. I also think that it will be impossible for it to get tattooed on by the deadline, so I have put that project on hold and am shifting gears a little bit. I plan to do a print of a similar theme, because my inspiration for the tattoo was Japanese block printing.
On an unrelated note, I got an idea for a new project that I think could be really cool. I have my old iPhone that is completely unusable and plan to possibly smash it, attach it to a wooden "canvas" and continue the shatters out. The shatters will have moments missed, presumable because of being absorbed in technology, in them. Right now it is just a brain storm though.
