I wanted to run a quick print test, investigating whether a lino cut print would show up well on top of stencilled paint printing. I was dubious about this because right when I started lino printing years ago, I tried to hand print a two colour lino print. What I found was, the thickness ofContinue reading “Lo Fi Printmaking – Print Tests”

Lo-Fi Printmaking – Idea Development
So, I’m going to try my very hardest to illustrate the thought process that has led to my idea for a print. We start with some of my research, specifically William Nicholson’s woodblock prints. I was always interested in “D for Dandy”, thinking I could create a similar print but with different fashion I’m interestedContinue reading “Lo-Fi Printmaking – Idea Development”
Visual Diary – Fashion Police
Yesterday I was on FIRE. I just drew and drew and drew. This was a delight to draw: designing young, teenage Ludwig as shorter than Drake, with bigger, fluffy hair. Designing teenage drake as thin as a stick before he puts any muscles on after puberty. This is such a mind scramble, because this isContinue reading “Visual Diary – Fashion Police”
Visual Diary – Slush-EE Pink
Still in my Weird Science Phase. Got an absolutely game changing idea for the next illust. Also, please tell me why Antonia looks so good with the ridiculous uppity 80’s hair? Shit, I should have given her gaudy blue eyeshadow! Next time, next time.
Visual Diary – Sorry Fellas, She’s Mine.
More weird science AU work. I’m obsessed with Techo being as gay as the fourth of July but playing the part to teach Drake and Ludwig life lessons about themselves. And a good thing too, because Drake is wondering why he’s not feeling anything with his arm around a gorgeous woman. And why his heartContinue reading “Visual Diary – Sorry Fellas, She’s Mine.”
Visual Diary – They’re Lunatics,
but I’m going to have to go out there and join them, aren’t I? Going back to my roots and making art based on the principle, what will I actually enjoy making? How can I get my idea out with it feeling as little like a chore as possible? And the answer to that questionContinue reading “Visual Diary – They’re Lunatics,”
Damp – Mould and Emails
During the group tutorial, I saw that Alice had used monoprinting to create some of her background. It was effective in her piece, but it was perfect in terms of creating a dirty, mouldy atmosphere. Considering that some of my feedback was to find a way to make the mould more sinister, and to seeContinue reading “Damp – Mould and Emails”
Visual Diary – She’s Alive!
More Weird Science content. I’m actually loving this, having to pull myself away from it to keep doing Uni work. Absolutely loved working with this silhouette. I liked using the lighting from the shot (a famous one from the film) to create a really simple suggestion of depth and scene. This is still simmering gentlyContinue reading “Visual Diary – She’s Alive!”
Damp – Opinions
I worked yesterday to get a shot of people voicing their opinions about the damp. Everyone likes to offer advice, and it all comes from a good place, but usually they’re repeating one of the very first things it’s logical to try. The audio will sync with peoples’ appearance on the screen, eventually layering toContinue reading “Damp – Opinions”
