And moving on...

While doing my walking while drawing Diary I have been attracted to the amount of movements in cities. for the bigger cities such as london i do a type of landscape drawing similar to david Lilburns. As for my other drawings I concentrate on different things as I walk. I try to catch the busyness and rush of the city in  my drawings. Because everyone has a place to be and somewhere to go as quick as they possibly can especially in london they dont stop to appreciate the city, the colours, the buildings and the textures. I use washes in my pieces when i get home. The colours are usually light and what i have in my memory. although the might not corrosponde with what i am drawing. eg. a tree could be yellow an red. The reason i do this is because i think it gives a sort of busyness to the drawings. While in cities i have taken photographs. The subjects are frozen in the photos. I willplay around wit oil pastelle to create the effect of movement in  these still photos.
