I do try to be a bit more organised but when I do tidy up...I then get things back out again to do some work and end up creating a mess again, what can I say!
Looking at these pictures though has made me think I should probably get rid of a few things and tidy it up a bit more!
There was a project last year (in my first year) where we had to make up a story using the dada technique of cutting up words and putting it back together any old way, so it didn't particularly have to make any sense..and then we were to illustrate the story..and I just wanted to put it on here because it was a project that I absolutely thourougly enjoyed doing! And why I enjoyed doing it so much was because there was no pressure of the story having to sound perfect, with a beggining middle and end and the same with the illustrations! And that made me realise that if you just let yourself play with ideas and not think into the final image and the story too much then you end up having loads of fun with it! I have fun illustrating and story telling anyway but using the dada technique really helps get the ball going ...especially when your stuck for ideas! So if your stuck on what to do etc just let yourself play with ideas, don't edit yourself and don't worry about how you think it should look...because when you let yourself have fun it will just come together naturally!!
This scene in a jar was the very first project I was given at the start of my degree and it was to illustrate or create in anyway we wanted, four personal memories that stand out!! And so I made this scene in a jar of what is meant to be me and my friend in the park on the swings.. this particular memory stands out to me because it was where me and my friend would go most weekends when we were young and we would non stop laugh and at everything and anything .....they were the best days ever!
I illustrated the rest of the memories and made them look 3dish which I'll pop on and show you when I can!
