A-Z poster

To start i explored various themes that interested me and that i felt sparked more ideas for exploration. The one i enjoyed working on the most was the animals, but i wanted to expand this to create a more aesthetically engaging piece. Therefore i took the images of the animals, and worked with them to create something a little more humorous. After a few drawings i came up with a title for the theme, 'The unknown adventures of the animal kingdom'. My aim was to produce images of animals doing things that they would never do. Human like characteristics in the animal world.

Here are a few images of the final piece in progress. 

 I am quite pleased with the final outcome, and i feel i put a lot of effort into it and really hope it shows. The two week brief was challenging on the whole, as you couldn't just get your teeth into one theme, but it really made you work fast and efficiently. Coming up with something for each animal to do or hold or wear was slightly difficult but it really made me think outside the box, which is something i'd like to take into account when working on briefs in the future. Another problem i had was positioning the animals to do these things because its such an unnatural thing to see. For example, the dog driving a car took a good few drawings before i was happy with it. Some, i feel work better than others, but as a collective i feel i achieved what i set out to do. I think if id had a little more time on the brief i would have added more tone and shading, but i don't feel its effected the final outcome too much. I really enjoyed this brief once we started working on our themes, and i liked that my theme was inventive and could be as silly as i wanted it to be.

The feedback sheet was really encouraging. People seemed to like the concept and thought the idea was funny which is exactly what i wanted to achieve. Someone suggested using colour with i thought could have worked, maybe i need to be more adventurous with my use of media.
