As part of my course I will receive a drawing award. For this I was required to create 40 drawings using at least 16 different techniques and materials. The size is A1 but the drawings themselves are 8x8cm. The techniques I used are: line (pen and pencil), continuous line (pen and pencil), pointillism (pen and needle), negative space (using graphite powder), stitch, watercolour, tonal, fine liner and water, wax resist, cross hatching, mixed media, ink, tea staining, coffee staining. 

All of these illustrations are approximately A4 in size and created using mixed media. By creating these drawings I was able to try a large variety of processes to find the best way of working.

All of the illustrations are approximately A4 in height. They have been created using mixed media containing materials such as ink, watercolours, tip-ex and biro.

This body sculpture was made on a female figure. I made it using calico and silk. I dyed each fabric using blue and teal brusho dyes to create an ombre blend; I got the idea from researching Elie Saab’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection. I then screen printed patterns onto the fabric which I had created from my drawings of water. Next I cut the fabric into strips, folded the fabric down the middle vertically and stitched into it creating a channel. Wire was then pushed through the channels, ruched, placed on the mannequin and hand stitched together. It was completed in 12 hours. 

For my current work I have been creating patterns from my drawings of churches and religious buildings. These are some of the original drawings I did from churches in Wigan and Whelley. I used a variety of materials to create these. Respectively they are (Left column): tonal, cross hatching, layered acetate; (Right column): continuous line, ink using a skewer, line. All of the drawings are approximately A5 in size. 

These drawings from my current work have been drawn from photographs that I took in Lanzarote and Gran Canaria. All of the drawings are approximately A5 in size. The materials used on the top row of drawings respectively are: negative space using graphite powder, pointillism, ink with a skewer. Those used on the bottom row respectively are: line using fine liner, line using pencil, continuous line using fine liner. 

All of these samples are A3. They have bee screen printed based on patterns that I made using Photoshop. Some are white paint on brown paper, black on white paper and grey on white paper.
