Initial Drawings.

 DUST
I think adding the dust worked well as it gives texture to the flat drawing. I think the dust represents the moss between the bricks well. I would develop this by looking in depth particularly at the moss, and recreate the moss using various techniques such as felting or weave, to create a green textured area.

 

 COMPOSITION
This picture is rather flat however the way I have created texture is by using oil bars as a primary basis to draw upon. It has given me something to etch into adding a scratched texture. I would develop my work by using embroidery to recreate this picture, and add more detail on the floral area using various embroidery techniques such as French knots and chain stitch.

 DRAWING ON A BACKGROUND
I particularly like this background of a Chinese newspaper, as the sharp Chinese text and harsh white creates a complete contrast to the green chalk drawing which is smudged and uneven. I would take this further by repeating this drawing to create a pattern, and stitch into it for more detail.

 CRUMPLED PAPER
This sketch is extremely simple using only Indian ink, however this creates a contrast to the confusing crumpled background. I like drawing on this type of background, as it adds more texture and improves the overall look of a plain white sheet. I would go on to draw this on a larger scale, by crumpling the paper more adding a more confused rhythm.

SHADOW DRAWING
This was drawn using a shadow of a cooking utensil. I thought this looked a bit too plain and flat, so I therefore decided to develop this by scratching into the page. This scratched affect adds a blurry-ness which links with the theme of shadow drawing. To develop this I would look particularly at the circular pattern using methods such as crochet.

TRACING PAPER
This final drawing is very interesting in colour and shape. I think the layered affect works well; this is something I could take further in my development work. also the small cut outs adds splashes of colour, however I would like to create a patterned cut out to allow more colour to burst though.
