Museum of Sydney

I rushed to finish the charcoal image at the museum and it didn't show the two perspectives clearly, they merged and appeared as one :S For the homework sketch from memory, I made it more obvious as to the different perspectives, the viewing box vs the stairs.

i returned to charcoal for these two as it helped get a richer range of textures on the page.

Watercolours were fun to use and they were also muccchhh easier to use - I had more freedom with how i painted and it also minimised error :D
It was nice to play with different layers and transparency ( especially in the pegs ...note: not sure why image wants to load upside down) the use of colour in the water colour painings were also more expressive and playful as opposed to the charcoal.

The first workshop was interesting an dchallenging, as it wasn;t that wasy to just let go and stard drawing. especially when we weren't drawing the object itself but its 'motion' :S ... lol .. but we got some pretty kool drawings and methods out of it.

The most entertaining was drawing withou tlooking at the page :p
I was at a loss for what to do with the buildings but by using different coloured charcoal and pastels and mixing the metods from the wokrshop I managed to get a nice blend of lines and textures.
