Week 2

Unfortunately I didnt have time last week to begin 'THE BLOG' however I have now found time to eventually start! Week 2 as a second year art btec student.. WOW. It aint easy!
In the first 2 weeks we have already, captured wasps!- more importantly, we have.. drawn the wasps with sticks using ink; drawn them with food colouring (drawn them with bleach/taken away colour); drawn them with pencils; drawn them with biro; drawn them with fine liner; heat transferred images of the wasps; taken photo's of the wasps; created collages of the wasps, and printed these collages, created gold cards and monoprints; and created photograms.. OF THE WASPS. Despite the reoccurring pattern which you may/may not have noticed I have actually really enjoyed my first 2 weeks and look forward to completing the year!  This is all work for our portfolios which are going to look LAVLYY and full of life (minus the dead wasps-they wont be full of life), as I'd quite like to get into Uni as I'm already a 3rd year.. yay -.-
Here are a few images/ drawings I have experimented with :)   Love Eve.
