Metamorphosis - Day 3

I attended a life drawing class to see if drawing the human body in an unusual ways would inspire me for the outcome of this project.i decided that instead of using normal skin tone colours or typical black chalk for life drawing i would used different materials and bright and vivid colours.
Each one of my drawing i roughly spend about 10 - 15 minuets on.

Here i have used wax crayons and used cool colours.


Here once again i have used wax crayons but this time used warm colours.


Here i ave tried to use block colours but because i was using ink to create this piece it did not work so well and the inks started to run and then started to turn into a purple colour.


Here i have used black and grey water colour pencils.

 I am quite pleased with my life drawing outcomes, i think the wax crayons warm and cool colours worked best.i think i have shown the shape and the tones and shadows of the human body still really well.


We then started to think about what we wanted to create for our final piece of work to do with metamorphosis weather that be the book by Franz Kafka or just metamorphosis in general. This piece could be anything from a piece of text, illustration, animation or something using photography.
i want my piece to include typography and maybe an illustration.so i started to look at some quotes from the book and then chose my favourite ones.

  • "I cannot make you understand. I cannot make anyone understand what is happening inside me, I cannot even explain it myself."
  • "As Gregor Sama awoke one morning from uneasy dreams he found himself transformed in his bed into a gigantic insect."
  • "what is happening to me" He thought it was no dream.
  • It was half past six and the hands were quietly moving forwards.
  • His room a regular human room, only a little on the small side. lay quietly between four familiar walls.
