For the final piece, we were pretty much given free reins to draw anything we wanted as long as it was including the requirements of drawing from observation. Well, I decided that I would do an intense study of an old camera. For this, I drew the camera itself and then proceeded to take it apart-as you do! My idea in this was that I would be creating a mock journey of the creation of the camera from its concept form in a blueprint to then the actually reality of the subject itself. My theory as well was that by drawing two pieces in a very modern way using digital software and then the other using the more traditional techniques of pencil and charcoal, this would also make a subtle statement about the progression of technology itself.
Ok, so you can tell I'm still in college work mode can't you! Spilling out all that art ramble above! I could keep going but instead I'll just show you the pieces for you to see what you think!
Et Voila! For hours and hours of work, that was very quick to post!
I'm quite happy with what I've produced. The only huge gripe I have is that the lens on the camera didn't really turn out that great but hey, I'm learning!
So yes, that is why I've been missing! Busy like I'm sure you all are too. Next stop, Maths GCSE exam first thing tomorrow morning...yeah, I'm not going to talk about that!
