Rotation Three - Fluid Thoughts

The final workshop that I completed was Fluid thoughts to actions, and was perhaps the most fun of the workshops that I completed. There are several things that I have learned from this course that I will take through into other projects, and on top of this, I enjoyed drawing so much that I am planning on continuing to draw in my own time.

The course taught me top always find different ways to look at things, and i think that in the end it didn't matter as much what ended up on the paper, but more the relation ship between what you observe and the lines that you draw.

I have included below the major images that were produced through the course, unfortunately my blind contour drawing was torn up and reworked, but I've leaned not to be so precious with my drawings, and I am quite happy with how the collaborative piece turned out. Not shown here are the 42 sketchbook drawings that we completed over the course, but i learned a great deal about using different materials from this. In the end i used willow charcoal, compressed charcoal, graphite sticks, lead pencild, coloured pencils, pastels and ink for my drawings, and each of them has a different way of representing either light or form which I tried to play with.

I think I will endevour to use sketching for presentations and representing abstract concepts in future projects, as it has been a lot of fun to do it for this course.
