So, after an exciting start, I had some issues gathering my thoughts in the studio. I had so many ideas about a subjective depiction of the fish market that I just ended up overwhelming myself. I received many helpful comments about my space and my objective drawing, so brainstorming was easy... the problem arose when I started to over think the next step of the assignment. I took a step back for a few days which was really helpful. Luckily, I was able to revisit the fish when I returned to the market with Regan's class on Thursday. I spent 4 hours drawing and observing, but in a very different way than I had the first time. Instead of trying to replicate the space in my drawings, I just drew. I ended up with really interesting drawing, which mixed my natural doodling with the contours and shapes that I saw in the market. These drawings are much more successful than my earlier sketches. Later that day, I experimented with photo copy transfers of my drawings and photos. I really enjoyed the result, and decided to use them in my subjective drawing. I am now concentrating on line quality as I draw and work with the transfers. Hopefully, it will work out to be something stimulating and representative of the space that I am so passionate about.
