Illustration workshop

These workshops consisted of responding to poetry, sounds and music through illustrations, to illustrate using mixed media and using different techniques. completing these workshops gave me an insight to how many different ways in which you can portray your work using different techniques. it helped me to produced expressive drawings as I was out of my comfort zone, which is positive as it develops my work and I played with some techniques that I don’t include in my work normally. one of my favourite techniques is collaging and continuous line, I found this was where my outcomes were best. I will continue to use these skills throughout my project and continue to try different techniques. it has taught me to open up my choices and to have no limits with illustrations, as well as knowing when to leave a drawing at its best. Moving forward I will often like to work out my comfort zone, to explore and experiment with techniques and learning different ways to express my ideas, often when I draw without hesitating is when I like the outcome, therefore I will be more confident when putting ideas on paper. I will also take the drawing techniques and use these in future projects.
