Term began this week with a briefing of the
Intentions unit, and an introduction to Alex who urged the importance of
risk-taking within this unit whilst also attempting to contextualize our work
to begin to develop our skills towards a specific industry. A sketchbook
presentation took place as part of the Intentions introduction. In small groups
we had the chance to present our drawings from the summer which was a great
opportunity to see our peers work whilst also getting some constructive
criticism and a fresh perspective in a mini-crit. I fee like the session was
quite informative both to my current work, and to our practices in general as
peer-critiques are an important part of our development as a creative
practitioner.

Chloe described my work as “quite
illustrative” full of “character”, which
was a great positive note, reassuring me to keep the illustrative quality of my
drawing and mark making, As my sketchbook is quite small due to the fact I made
it A5 size for handiness to carry it with me on my summer adventures, Maui
suggested to try larger scale to free my hand. My sketches are from a recent
trip to Barcelona, exploring line qualities and bold colour; I home to retain
the energy I capture from specific moments there in my future drawings for this
project.
