Drawing

This module was extremely helpful to me as i have improved allot on observational drawing and fashion figures. I have found my own personal style of drawing without using a stencil.
I found each exercise helped in different ways as we had to draw in different ways such as with our eyes closed, using the top of a pencil, attaching a pen to a paintbrush, using our left hand and drawing the object in ten seconds. Attaching a pen to a paintbrush was the best result as it gave a squiggly messy effect which looked rather artistic.
It was nerve racking when we had to draw each other as we had to pose in different positions stood on the table, it helped as we got to actually focus on the right proportion of the body which helped with fashion figure drawing.
The range of materials i used to draw with was outstanding as with some of them it was the first time i have used them and found them great to work with.
I found the techniques that worked for me best was drawing in ink, fine liner and oil pastels, and watercolour.
I have also improved my photo shop skills on this project as i was not very confident at all using CAD, but i now know the basic skills to change colours and textures to an image, i altered five of my images on photo shop by scanned them in and changing the effects, adding highlights and backgrounds etc.
I have taken some images of my favourite drawings from this module.








IMAGES OF MY WORK
The images were inspired by fashion figure books, my friends and garments found on the Internet from high street shops. I have also looked at silhouettes, different poses, proportion and faces. I feel the style that suits me is a simple silhouette with extremely look legs that's in proportion.
