...Just one more...
KM sent me her Spring submission a bit late and I have not had the opportunity to post before this. She has sent in another interesting concept work. It is titled 'Spring 2020, at least we have daisies'. KM has created a busy drawing featuring events that normally make up a Mebourne spring and has been part of her life but have been cancelled this year. Items representing the RM Show, The Melbourne Cup, the Grand Final all feature. I am not quite sure what the blue shape represents, maybe a fancy hat blown off from a fashionista at the cup? I would like to work with KM to develop this idea further, perhaps when lock down is open and class resumes.
She has used 110gsm paper and Faber Castel Colour Classic pencils. These pencils have let her down a bit - they are an entry level, or student quality pencil. The have a hardened core which makes blending difficult, especially on a lower quality paper. Because they are so hard they also have less colour output making it difficult to achieve deep rich colours even with layering.
Pencils aside, it is a fun concept - I especially like the Freddo Frog falling out of the showbag!
