Written styles












This is a series of different styles of written I wanted to create, where I wrote different things related to the book cover work I was doing based around a book the language of flowers. With the written styles I used my normal written style, bubble written and highlighting over the letters written to make them more bold.




flower drawings








This is a series of flower drawings I did based around images of flowers from the internet. I did the drawings in pen and some in pencil , where I did a series of the same flower drawing on one page. With the drawings I tried to draw them as accurately as I could, with the different shapes and I also intended to make the outlines strong in all the drawings. I like the drawings because I believe they have been drawn accurately and most of the different shapes and sections of the flowers are clear, but next time I feel I need to add better detail to some of the drawings.

Gagosian gallery visit, the show is over



This is when I went to the Gagosian gallery visit, the show is over exhibition, where I went round and had a look at some of the work and made notes about some of the work. I was interested in the work because of how I found some of it strange because some of the way I could not figure out and it just drew me in.


Victoria Miro museum visit




This was when I went to the Victoria Miro museum and had a look at Idris Khan work, which was on display. I liked the work because I found it interesting how all this work is made by lettering. I also made notes about the work. 


British museum African art expedition





THis is where I went to the British museum to see an African art exhibition, where I had a look at the art work on display and took photos of the one's that interested me and I also took notes of some of the art work. I did like a lot of work on display because of the way they show different ways of showing Africa with it's history, animals and people.   

Royal Albert museum visit





This is when I went to the Royal Albert museum, where I had a look at some of the art work on display and did some drawings of some of the art work I did not really like the work on display, with the drawing I tried to draw it as accurate as I could. I like the drawing because I believe the overall shape of the figure has been drawn accurately, but next time I felt I had to add more smoke just like in the art work.    

book sculpture





This is a book sculpture I made, where I carved away different sections of the pages from the book, which left different shapes and pattens from the book, which can been seen from the side of the book when the book is closed, I also went over some lines of the book with a black pen to remove some of the text, so the story of the book would change and not make sense. I like my work because I believe the pattens from the book, which I removed have come out well and have made a good overall shape from the side of the book, but I feel I should of removed more lined from the story.
