Drawings for FMP

Today I managed to go and get some textured wallpaper to do some larger drawings. The textured wallpaper I feel adds something to the drawings which I like. I did some drawings with ink on the wallpaper which I think look good, I did the most of them with a thick pencil which I like.
After this I decided to have ago on the sewing machine, drawing the images of the head models for wigs. I have been drawing these from the photos I took from the hair wholesales.
I decided to draw the models again, as I thought the drawings in my sketchbook were successful so I'd have another go. I really like these drawings!! Please have a look at them below in the photos.





Below is a drawing which I really like. I used ink here and the way I moved the pencil around it's made the drawing look like its 3D, and with shading. However I didnt mean for that to happen! YAY!!



The next two photos below I have done the images on the sewing machine. You cant really tell that its thread instead of a pencil line, however I like the shapes that I have created within this drawings. I used the sewing machine as a pencil instead of a machine. I like them them both! YAY!!




The photos above I really like all the drawings. I did them all on textured wallpaper, however you cant tell its on textured paper in the photos, but they are!! Oh well, maybe I'll try tomorrow to get a close up of the textured paper and the drawings!!! We shall see how the time goes by!!

Tomorrow in college I would like to talk to Michelle about what to make for my final piece. Whether its some drawings or a 3D oddbod maybe? We shall see!!!!!! 

Night night! Its been a long busy day and I need sleep for College tomorrow as it will be a busy busy week!!!

Oddbods

So in my FMP work I have made some oddbods out off hair pices found in pharmacys! I really like them! I melted them, wrapped hair through them, round them and all sorts! I'm really quite pleased with them! Please see the pictures below!!!!!!!




















My oddbods! I'm really pleased with them! Hope you enjoy them also!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAIR

So I've just spent last night (whilest watching Red Nose Day) and this morning, wrapping hair around a black comb! It looks quite good me thinks! On Thrusday I started to do this and it looked good, but then I deceieded to make it bigger with scale! So I've wrapped a whole head of blonde hair extensions around this comb! I think it looks quite good! Below is an image of my piece finished, this little oddbod! I know the photograph isnt the best but I was in a rush and wanted this blog to go out!!!


Below are images of my oddbod done on thrusday. You can see the shape of the oddbood more here and above its kinda merged into one. I really like the images below, I think the photography is quite good, if I say so myself!!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some research........

Out and about on my travels in London I have come across some things that could relate to my FMP on Hair.
See below at the pictures:

Below are some pictures I took of a window display when I went home on Thrusday. As a family we went to a really cool cinema called The Rex in Berkemstead! Where we parked there was this really cool display!The Wigs are tossled with straw and paper in them, but they look good I think so I took a photo!!!




Below are some pictures of the Libertys window display, the friday before half term week! I really like the colours in this display! They are bright and floresent which is cool I think! But I really like how the clothes are hanging off light which is great! Then also with the wire for the lights just placed on the floor. But this wire I think looks like Hair, just tossled everywhere! So I'm just putting ideas through my head, but am wondering if I could involed, lights, wire and things in my work maybe?





Below are some pictures of a barbers shop in London. With the traditional red and white sign indicating a barbours! So I took a cheeky photo!



Below are some pictures of the current Jigsaw window display in London. I really like the flowers coming out of the head. Its really different and new! I Like this! The flowers coming out of the head made me think of a different take on hair? This I quite like, I think I might take some colours from here for my colour pallette!



YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY!

Because I'm silly...

So before I started my FMP I did a project called 'It's not what it says on the packet'! So I decided to get my giraffe toys and put pins in them, safety pins, and wire! So they look like soft toys, but actually they are sharp and horrible!
I took photos of them on Monday, but I deleted them on Thrusday before I uploaded them on to my computer! So I dont have them just now! However I will take more next week sometime and put them up! I promise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More really delayed posts!

Right so I've been really silly and havent blogged in ages which is silly!
So my deconstruct project has now finished. I've enjoyed this project but also I found that I have struggled. I enjoyed denconstructing my radio and drawing that as I love to draw!!! See some drawings below!







Below are my favourite samples I did in my deconstruct project which is why I have uploaded them on my blog! Below is a heat press transfer I did of a negative to positive photocopy! I like this sample I'm really pleased with it!! YAY!


Below is my negative to postive photocopy of my circuit board! I really like this!! YAY!


Below is a piece I made by melting into some plastic envolopes which I really really like! Even though it really really smelt when I was doing it! YUCK!


Below is a sample I made by wrapping staples in silk threads! This is meant to look like the little pin things on the circuit board!


So above are my favourite samples from deconstruct! I like them all, they are all really different which is what I like about them! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
