Still life drawing & logo design

At the beginning of the project the artists were each issued with an 'identity box', and were asked to use the box to collect objects that were imbued with personal significance. The objects were put to use in both the DM (digital media) workshops and also the MM (mark making) workshops. 

In the DM workshops the artist were further exploring the theme of identity by creating their own personal logos. The artists were set the task of taking a 'still life' photograph of one of the objects from their identity box, and then incorporating that into their logo. Here are some of the results below...

Meanwhile, in the 'MM' workshop the artists, explored their visual language through both experimental, and conventional mark making. Their 'identity box' objects were used as a starting point. Aaron's used conventional drawing methods, to recreate his shell, which resulted in a stunningly original charcoal sketch.

Chris worked with more experimental methods, by tracing around his object and repeating the shape to create a beautiful pattern effect.
