Summer project 1

So I may have finished uni for summer but I have plenty of work to keep me busy, one of the projects is to do 50 portraits a6 size, so not to big but still a challenge, I was given 50 words so that each of the words got a caption some of them I have had to look up as had no idea what they meant.

Here is number 1 of my images 

Opportunist 

( I will scan in the images as a set at a later date when I have actually done the rest so it might take a little while)

Arthur and Achoo

I have managed to find some of my previous drawings as to how i created my latest project 

Heres how it began :

I looked at many different fairytales and folktalesa hoping to find one to develop into a Children's story. I decided to look at ones closer to home as I thought the Isle of Wight must have a few interesting ones given its past, and it did :) I found one called "The Giant of Blackgang Chine" which I had not heard of before. This gave me many ideas and was an inspiration for my children's story. So I began to start with designing the main characters.

This is not my final story board as i have handed that in at the moment but it is one of my first basic plans so im sorry its rushed but i got carried away with the story and the idea and couldnt put it to paper quick enough :)

Would you believe that the above sketchy drawings became the below final pieces? i don't but im really glad that they did 

Welcome :)

Welcome to my new blog :) 

As its the beginning of summer and the beginning of a lot of summer projects for my uni course, i thought it would be a great idea to start a new blog. I know the page is quite empty at the moment but i will shortly be uploading a selection of my uni work that i have just handed in and it is being marked in these coming weeks! After that I will try to post my drawings up to creating a final piece, so that you can see as to how i create my final pieces from start to finish. Happy blogging! x
