Quick trip back to September (1)

WEEK ONE!

I didn't get what i was supposed to show on my blog until now so im going to take you back a little bit and show just some of the work i did up to now.

 
This is just a little play with things on my desk.  With my original idea of the brain in mind i wanted to play around with the colour and shape of the jellybeans and thought of how it could be used for markmaking like if i had dipped them into water and placed them on the page. The hope was the dye from the sweets would make the picture. 
 

 
I can't believe i went further with this but i did i put them into the glove to see how much space they took up... then i took a look inside to see how Claustrophobic  it would make me feel.
Space closing in...
 
 
But then decided the Jellybeans were best used for their purpose....
.... so i ate them J
 
I also went off and drew the brain and also did some research into the styles of one of my favorite artists - Alex Pardee.  I wanted to tie his style in with my own and create a colour drawing of a beautifully grotesque brain! I drew it out a couple of different ways and planned a bigger pencil drawing.
 
That was a quick recap on week one!
