life drawing


Since starting Art foundation I have started to attend the life drawing which is held on Wednesday. During my first classes my life drawing was ok, but not in proportion. This led to having shorter leg than the body which looked different to how the human body is structured. It was very difficult to create the right proportion as every time was the same out come.
Eventually I then started to make rough marks  where the head, body, leg and toes are placed which created more accurate drawing. This provided me with more confident when creating a life drawing and my drawing improved further.

visit to Nepal





In my summer holiday I visited Nepal. Nepal in located in Asia and is in between China and India. The purpose of my visit to nepal was to visit my fellow family and friends who lives there. While I was there I was inspired by their culture, religion and buildings. Most of all I was inspired by the patterns and sculptures which created the buildings. The patterns and the sculpture were carefully carved and had lots of detail which was very interesting to see.  It was the perfect opportunity for me to gather all these wonderful images of the patterns.  It is very intresting to see how these detailed patterns were created hundred of years ago when they didn't have any technology to help them with which shocks me. Most individuals my age thinks good things are newly built whereas the images of the buildings I took were created hundreds of years ago and are the most astonishing because they are more intricate and each individual pattern has a relevance or meaning.
