Most Current Work ......

I am looking directly at perspective within buildings, bringing the viewer's eye to a single focus point. With the pieces below you can see the sense of speed and direction. I have enlarged the scale of my work from A3 to A1, this has created more powerful images. I have also experimented in drawing the whole image again on the same piece of paper, but shifted it a millimeter to the left. I have repeated this process three times. This increases the sense of speed and makes the image more blurred adding to the idea of movement. I first came up with this idea of movement and layering of images after a talker from a visiting artist called Clair Weetman, who recored the movement of people whilst overlaying the images. This has really inspired my own work. I am still using acetate to extend the image of the page, but would like to start experimenting in different material, such as tracing paper or graph paper.

Current work ....

Within my current work I have been looking at perspective single line drawing inspired by buildings and sky lines. The aim of these piece is to create a sense of speed and direction, drawing the viewers focus to a certain points of the image. I have been over laying different angles and view point of buildings adding depth and confusion to the pieces. Some parts of the images are busier than others allowing the viewer to focus on different elements of the piece. Below are a few examples .......
