Some Ideas For My Project


I have chosen to do Story for my project, I want to use Alice in Wonderland as my inspiration as it is a fairytale that has multiple variations and is versatile when it comes to changing it and altering what things look like, I am thinking of doing a darker tone to the characters and making it a little Tim Burton-esque. Below are some images that I've selected that I'll be using for my primary source of ideas and inspiration.

Mountain Experiment



In today's session I decided to use my piece that I created in Gill's session and edit it in Photoshop, I created 2 versions, one realistic silhouette setting and a very bold silhouette setting, I really like the idea of using silhouettes with an abstract and colourful background as they are both bold in different ways and the viewer likes to look at the whole image as there is no real focal point, however, in this image the focal point can be the flag on the top of the mountain.

My Backgrounds





Here are some images that I created in session, I'm quite proud of them, the first image was created with 100% primary imagery and the other 3 were created with a photo of Manchester Cathedral I took with a background of a nebula that I took from the internet then edited it.

Andrew Peutherer

Andrew Peutherer is an artists I like and have researched, I like this image especially as this is something similar as to what I'd like to do for my final piece.

Silhouette

Saw this whilst browsing the internet, I like the way different shades of black and white have been used to create depth such as foreground and background.

Nebulas

I found this image on how to draw a nebula, this could be useful for my next session where I'll be doing this for my final piece

Really Cool Helmet

So I saw this helmet on Pinterest, I really like the design on it as it's very fantasy-like and very awesome to look at for a real life helmet.
