Colour!

Well, i did something with a vague direction today, woah, go me!

Typically, in true 'location drawing' style, the morning i plan to take photos outside is the day its grey and drizzly! Despite this it really was pretty impressive how much colour there actually is in a seemingly grey/brown winter garden if you just look close enough. Of course having a turquoise shed and fence helps as well!





Attempting to whip up some colour wraps now to translate my new found colour! It was great fun getting out my vast collection of threads and chopping up strips of mounting board :). Here are some rough examples, i didn't want to spend too long on these but it was important to get the colour right.





The photos of these aren't very good as the light was fading and my scanner got confused. But you get the idea!

Hmm, i think tomorrow will be time to look out the leather again... :)
