At first I started off by drawing with different mediums, these being pastel, charcoal, pen, marker and graphite.
I then started to experiment with different techniques. The first is where I have taped two mediums together. This was a interesting way to draw because it changed when I moved the direction in which I held them.
This drawing is done using vertical and horizontal lines. I was not able to create curved line nor diagonal. I love the way that this turned out. The square like shapes still resemble the body however it is unique in style.
The next is done using two hands, each with a different medium. I enjoyed this technique because I was limited with the ability of my left hand and my right helped contribute to the shape whilst the left contributed to texture.
These two drawings were created by taping a medium to a stick. This was very hard to create shape with and I did not enjoy this very much although it did help with freeing up my style of drawing.
Another drawing I have done is by pointing out where the main joints are on the body and then filling in the dots, fleshing the body out. I really disliked this technique because I could not get the shape right and it frustrated me.
My left hand is the weaker of the two and for me to improve this I tried out using this hand. It was hard to control however it gave a sense of freedom to my work.
I then tried out different action poses, where the model posed using a stick acting out different scenes. For example snooker or a wand.
