I have a story in my mind that addresses issues surrounding identity. The story had become stagnant recently but I have realised that the main character (for reasons I will divulge later) becomes a rabbity type creature. Here are some images from today's work, preliminary sketches from photos -
then work on the character himself.
Finally I scanned them in and they ended up in a situation that non of them were bound for when I started drawing. The story does involve bullying. The final image for me addresses a question of how much of western culture is born from the playground as much as the classroom. The collars, cuffs, cases and ties are there to ask how much our schools have really been able to progress?
I love the rabbity creature. The final drawing reminds me a lot of the emotional sides of a corporate working life! Are there any more drawings with this character?
ReplyDeletethat s cool !
ReplyDeleteHi Sam,
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your pictures. There is often a simplicity if you glance at them but emerging detail for those who take the time to look for a while.
The range of different materials being used adds interest and I guess you still get time to explore your local art store looking for just the right pen or brush.
Regards, Luke.
