I started by drawing everything I
owned, a challenge in itself, but remembering everything I owned and for it to
all fit onto one page was another. My mind began to scan my room and to figure
out everything, but there was just too much I would have been there for days
and would of needed a lot more paper!!!
From this I narrowed it down to just
10 items that I had already considered. This led me on to draw them out
smallest using materials that created a thin line, to the largest object
creating a thicker line.
I then did this the other way around
with my smallest item having the thickest line, to the largest having the
thinnest but this time I drew my way outward and around the previous. Creating
an interesting affect. Still each with a different mark. But this led me on to
experiment using a continues line outward with each item getting larger and
this I felt was more effect and slightly more confusing as if the object became
one.
This idea of mark making was continued
though the day with me then crating a drawing implement with rolled up
newspaper to create a point, and with run down paint and 16 separate books, I
was to draw what came to mind when a word was shouted out, words from choir to
rabbit to soap opera. As the paper continued to get dipped in the paint the
line changed as the drawing went on which I found rather beautiful as they
became more rustic and soulful.
I finished the drawing day off buy
refining these 16 drawing by copying them out with a fine liner, although still
an interesting set of drawing I feel they lost there charm from the indicial
marks.
Today has really helped me look at
different marking making techniques and the idea of changing an objects initial
thought. I will continue to vary my marks to see what interesting pattern and
design I can make.
