Reportage Sketchbooks P4

Sketchbook 10




This sketchbook contained some experimentation too - whereas the bulk of my drawings are simple black fineliner sketches, others are not - some contain the art of chinese papercutting (a very time consuming task that creates a very beautiful image). I also tried drawing on a leaf - however, the leaf soaked up the ink, and the image is no longer visible on its surface.

Sketchbook 11 (final book)

It was in this book that I took the opportunity to experiment with what effects could be gained through different colour combinations - mainly through looking at the use of two different coloured pens at once (holding them both in the same hand and drawing) and placing a brightly coloured image over its opposing colour counterpart. I didn't really like any of the results I achieved, but it was useful information to know. The rest of the book focussed on mark making (the difference between neat lines and sketchy ones).
