Cambridge Archaeological Unit
Reportage illustration on location with Cambridge Archaeological Unit during weeks 8 - 12 of my first trimester of BA(Hons) Illustration at Cambridge School of Art.
I use observational drawing as a library to inform all my work. It gives me the opportunity to capture and show my personal interpretation of the world moving around me; using experimental mediums, imaginative and playful colours as another level of communication in my images to show the viewer what intrigues me in a scene, person or subject. Observational drawing provides me a way to channel my curiosity as a creative and develop a deeper understanding of the little gestures, behaviours, organic and industrial landscapes that build a greater feeling of humanity within my illustrations.
