As its been the Easter term brake recently I have had some time to catch up on some work that I have been meaning to but not quite had the time. Something that I have been lacking in is the amount of drawings in my work. So I have spent some time doing quick sketches, ink drawings, acrylic and watercolour paintings and longer more detailed drawings which have been based mainly around feathers. I have had some fun with colour and have been playing around with patterns with them. I feel I have learnt a lot from my drawings and my work and ideas have really benefited from it! Over the next set of holidays (which are a lot longer) I will be sure to keep up this frequent drawing as I have learnt that it is important for an artist to ensure that their drawing skills are up to a good standard or the rest of their work may suffer. Also it is where a lot of inspiration can come from which can lead to further developing future work and help in terms of scale.
