A Day Out At Knightstone- 8/9/15

Following the launch of our first project, entitled 'Land and Water', we spent a day out on the sea front up at Knightstone. Throughout the day we drew different parts of the landscape.

(Left)
A small pebble beach between Marine Lake and Birnbeck. One of the drawings I did on this was was of the pathway seen here, disappearing into the water.

(Right)
A very gloomy looking Brean Down.

(Left)
A rock pool. I did want to draw a rock pool as I think they are a nice combination of land and water that isn't a full on landscape. I didn't have a chance because there was nowhere for me to sit and draw (everywhere was wet and uneven). I may try and draw this from the picture at a later date.


 I'm not a massive fan of drawing landscapes so even though I know I need to practise to improve, I like thinking of other land/water examples. I also find it a lot harder having to draw in black and white, which was what we were asked to do at first. I think once I can start adding colour in, my work will improve.

I am not exactly proud of this work, but I believe it's important to document my work throughout this course to document my development.
