Foxxy Love

At University we have quite an open brief called 'Surprise' and i have a number of ideas which all include a fox and so I am examining the way foxes look and stand and features of a fox. Here are some doodles and I am drawn.


There will be more to come. keep checking my blog for more Foxxy Love and other animals I may include.

Yo ho ho it's Magic, you know.

Just a little promotion for a quite big DJ and a great friend. He is a great DJ who uses and creates a wide range of music and there is truly a song for everyone. It would be great if you could support such an amazing artist by listening to as many songs as you like.

Foxes and rabbits


For today's lesion I done some mono printing. It had been well over two years since exploring mono printing and I have realised I am not as good as I used to be.

To do monoprinting I rolled oli paint onto some wood to make an even thin layer of paint. I then used some really nice Chinese paper which has a lovely soft texture and has very light feel to it. I placed it ontop of the ink lightly and tried not to put any pressure on the paper other wise it will leave a mark. I then drew out my designs which printed onto the other side.

I liked my outcome but tend to use a rubber a lot which is my flaws in these kind of prints.

Here are a couple I done.

Awkward Printer.

For my 'Walking in my Mind' project, I decided to create a screen print using an illustration I drew called 'Awkward Sleeper'

(only a rough copy. I had to hand in the original illustration/ drawing)

The process I used to create this screen print was by transferring my image onto a screen by using a light thing (I can't remember the name). After I had to get a squeegee and paint and had to firmly scrape the paint over the screen to create a crisp outline. (sorry for the lack of knowledge)

(screen print outcome)




One eyed beauty

So I started drawing a random lady and it started out really well...


I then got scared and didn't draw the other eye...


I finally got to the end and attempted to draw the eye 4 times and could not match it up. She shall forever be a one eyed beauty.
