reflection of the week..

Not much in the way of sculpting this week. my focus has been on drawing.. 
Ok this how it began... Drafted my personal statement,( seriously i saw one example that stated, rather than seeing a rusty nail, they see, gold, silver, browns, ) my focused on my inspirations like
People. Facial expressions, gestures, movement.  Nature. Shape, form, colours and the cyclical nature of life in general.This then lead my lecturer to understand where i was coming from with my ideas.

So i started looking at skulls, drawing their features etc. at first as usual i was heavy with pencil( the shakes make it a little hard work being light at time) but i experiment with just using the pencil end. I also looked at drawing using points. I moved on to drawing myself (shudder)

Oh Thursday i did life drawing( different qualification, but fitted in nicely with my week) I loved it, not a straight line in sight wooo hooo, felt a little sorry for the model(cos I'd be uncomfortable stood naked in front of so many people, but she stated she zoned out which eased my mind. 

Friday i used graphite powder, closed my eyes, felt my face and mapped it with the graphite and my fingers... turned out some great pieces, i also did a paper draft of a 3d model of an abstract face i designing (photos to be added later)

I have enjoyed the week, but dam i have been tired, no change to my medication, and not depressed, so i can only take it that the dark evenings are having an effect on me.
