Art Work.

Here are a few drawings I did in my spare time.  I became very interested when looking at a Complete guide to William Hogarth, as well as seeing some of Leonardo DaVinci's work in the National Gallery last week.  I thoroughly enjoy the anatomical aspects of two of these three drawings, with special attention to the use of tone, light, and the muscular apparatus.

The other drawing was produced after feeling a sudden urge of boredom lift, and therefore replaced by the need to draw and produce, random, morphed people.

Here are a few photos that I took, when feeling the Sunday morass of boredom.

Some were taken in a local churchyard near my home.  I enjoyed the Gothic themes at play, and how nature was portrayed as dark and untimely.

Results in.

Finally, my Masters results have been confirmed.  I am so happy that they were of admirable standing.  Now all there is to do is find myself some form of employment, and set the Grand Plan into motion.

Seemingly, the financial crisis has left a giant void not just in the job market but also my psyche.  The sheer inability to act, look, obtain until I fully completed my course was absolute.  I can only hope that the completion frees up what is needed in my subconscious to kick the conscious into overdrive.

Images

I re-found an image that I took last year around the Festive season, in Greenwich.
Taken from the window of a Chinese restaurant, I like the play between business as usual and the festivities of the street lamp decoration.

Christmas Joy

Christmas day, the birth of Christ, and all I can think about is food, and presents.  Is that wrong?
The modern day nuances of a festive season merely focused around Mammon are sad, but plain to see.

Present wise, I am engrossed by the Asos sale atm.  Some very good, classic pieces, but also like any sale, some that are not my cup of tea.


I have seen some very nice classic Chelsea boots, I adore the dandyish look, sadly most shops don't stock an original design, but more over the modern take, 60s fashion of pointed toe, rather than that of a rounded toe.  Ah well, hopefully a full revival shall begin soon.  One can hope.
