Some Sketchbook pages

These are some of the first drawings that I didn't after coming back from Edinburgh. I was really inspired by the architecture of the city.

Edinburgh Trip

Today we all made our way into Edinburgh, it wasn't as stressful as I thought it would be (I get quite worried about travelling) and it was nice to be able to spend the day with my classmates not in a classroom.
It was quite a busy day, we went to Mary King's Close, went on the tour, wander the streets, down to Greyfriars and saw Yoda and some stromtroopers. Although the aim was to help us narrow down what we wanted to look at I feel it has done the opposite for me I feel there are now too many options in my head, so I think I'll take some more trips back myself to see if I can get a clearer idea.
Here's some pictures from the day.

Week 2

Since we're off Monday and Tuesday I used those days to just get a bit more done in my sketchbook but the problem is that I can't really seem to find an answer for what I want to do with the Edinburgh brief. Hopefully when we go on Friday I'll have a better idea.

First Week back!

Well starting this week off, I haven't slept much so having to get up at 9am on Wednesday I was like a little zombie. Wednesday was a good day mostly filled with information and we didn't start doing much, we got our brief (the Edinburgh one) and discussed our other classes.
Thursday wasn't much different just starting research for the Edinburgh brief. However on Thursday mornings we have a new class, a video class which seems really interesting so hopefully that'll be good. The afternoon was more research
Friday in the morning we have painting which I think I'm really going to enjoy, haven't had a chance to paint as much as I would've liked so it'll be good to get back into the habit. In the afternoon we have contextual studies again and we are looking at knowledge and power, not sure what we're going to do with that but it seems like it'll be interesting.
I hoping that this year goes better than last year, I want to try my best and make sure that I speak up when I don't know what I'm doing.

New final piece

As I had to re-do my final piece for pathways, I decided to take it in a different direction. I wanted to create a piece that looked like a doctors chart or a patient file. I made 12 different sheets that represented my journey to accepting my Dad's illness. I made thought was that their is 12 months in a year, although he was diagnosed in 2009, I was going to do 14 or 15 as that was the age I was when he was first getting tested.

I made several different sheets to show my journey from my Father's diagnosis till now.
