After working digitally, I have decided that I would like to return to handmade materials. I feel that I was focusing too much on finishing the brief and producing the work, rather than effectively evaluating the potential final outcomes. Recently in my practice I have begun to understand that a digital aesthetic within my work is simply not for me, and I would really like my images to retain a sense of a handmade process or materials.
Being at home this past week I found a pencil case full of crayola crayons and starting drawing! As a material they are very nostalgic and I think provide a really playful, naive finish to my designs. In terms of using these as my final outcome, however, I do not think they look professional enough. Moving forward I think I will continue to be investigating use handmade materials to develop my drawings, and achieve this raw sense of the handmade to my final outcomes.
