Textile pastel dye sticks this time!
Also it’s kind of a preview of my new digital drawing! (left side) I got the Idea while looking at a tree so you see, I made some changes. It sometimes is nice to redraw your thing on a different material (computer / this) - you get new ideas, for improvement
Further textile Drawing for the Swan Characters.
I have created these images by cutting away sections of my landscapes and colour imagery, in the celtic shapes I have been working with, and placing the cut areas on top of other images. I am so happy with the look of these textiles drawings and think they translate beautifully to the swan characters.
My aim is to bring in the pagan symbols with a mix of christian symbols as this is eventually the world they will end up in after the 900 years of the spell. I think the above drawings achieve this in a very natural and aesthetically pleasing way.
Sketches produced in textile drawing sessions.
In textile drawing we were challenged to produce a textile drawing from our own imagery in a different style. Numerous image bundles were passed around that focused on different areas/ mediums/ ways of drawing- colour, pattern, monochrome etc.
Above is an image of the pattern work in progress and a final image of what I produced for the colour challenge.
I took my image of Tullymore Forest park and took the colour from my blood moon sketches. This design took around 40 minutes and is all done in pastel. I love the way it turned out and the colours are perfect for the character of Aoife (evil stepmother, who turns the children into swans).
I plan to go into my character development and breakdowns a little bit later when I have more art work to share for them.
Primary textile drawing.
