Had a really good talk about my work with Ben the other day and its completely opened my eyes to a different direction I could take my work.
Since getting an A3 sketchbook I feel my work has progressed loads. Its usually when I'm not thinking too much and using my brush pen that I get the best results. Ben and I discussed the crazy pages I've been doing like the one above, and how they resinate with Carrington more so than the more refined detailed drawings. I want to capture her surrealism and her characters more than anything else, so I prepared the images below ready for screen print. I want it to look a bit crazy and and haphazard in order to capture the side of Carrington that I want. I feel this work reflects her more so than a lot of my other stuff, so I'm pretty happy with this direction at the moment. Will have to see how they turn out.
Gestural marks for background. Second layer, probably going to be black.
