CIRCUS CIRCUS

A project for university this semester.

A few pages from my sketchbooks with titles:


LEFT TO RIGHT: Gennadiy and Grigoriy (strongmen), 
Katenka (acrobat), Queue (for the big top).

These three sketches with watercolour (and dark sepia Faber-Castell Indian ink B [brush] pen for Gennadiy and Grigoriy) were done in my new Moleskine sketchbook which has the most lovely (possibly 180+ or so gsm) paper to work on.

The subject we are given to work with is the theme of "circus" so I've been looking and experimenting a lot with shape and colour; challenging how I normally use my preferred media of choice and also trying out a handful of different ones while creating a narrative.

FABELHAFT II

Experimenting with digital collage.

I used Photoshop alongside parts of a previous illustration with a postcard of Celia Hammond in Paris taken in 1962.
