Today I got to experience emotions similar to the ones I had during Toolbox 4 when we were making the collages. It was just as fun and challenging, only this time I felt a little more comfortable because I feel more confident in my drawing skills.
I started out with a very conventional and detailed illustration of my garments, but the teacher advised me to play around with the shapes a little more and “stop being so safe”. The illustrations didn’t have to show the work in full detail, and be more expressive than informative, so I went on to experiment with different styles, materials and techniques.
Some of my illustrations were performed in pastels, others were painted with acrylic markers, but my favorite ones were the line drawings, especially the one combined with the collage details.
