To start this workshop, we were given the task of creating two A3 sized drawings of the skyline out the window or a view from inside the studio. To begin with I decided to create a quick study using a black sharpie of the atrium….
To create my first illustration, I drew the basic outline with pen which resulted in a simplistic but effect graphic image. I decided to block in the objects as I felt that this composition of objects would still be recognisable in just one blanket colour….

I created this piece using pen and markers and I feel I produced a loose, colourful study while also making sure the objects were still recognisable. To begin with I created a simple black outline of each object and I felt this by itself was…
Following creating my alphabet, I wanted to explore using plastic bags to creating letterforms. I decided to create these two words, ‘Problem’ and ‘Pollution’ as a way of linking the materials and the words. I found the bags quite effective in making letterforms, especially when…
