A Book of People, Places, Objects & Spaces cont.

After discovering Sunga Park, I decided I want to approach my illustrations in a similar way:




These were done by doing pen drawings on one sheet and washes of brusho on another that I placed on a layer beneath the pen drawings on Photoshop. 

I think that the brusho makes great washes, but after talking to my tutor I feel that maybe these look a bit lifeless compared to some other looser drawings in my sketchbook, and don't really convey much about the churches or the experiences I had visiting them.
I also need to think about how to be more adventurous with the combination of brusho and pen, and how they work together rather than separately producing them.
I also had not really thought about how to place them in my frame, and so I am now left with floating vignettes.



Some compositional sketches taking frame into account; I think that this is how I need to approach the rest of the drawings before I can think about final execution.

Just a couple pages of the compositional sketches I did in my sketch book
