Large-Scale Drawing

These are an improved series of drawings since I used a drawing board to remove the grainy wall texture and made precise lines instead of ambiguous sketchy marks. I experimented with black backgrounds so the parasol is viewed in negative. This looks effective as the surrounding darkness is atmospheric and creates a strong, vivid image. To create my large-scale drawing, I placed the squares together which looks striking as it clearly displays a contrast of light and dark.

Mixed Media Drawings
My idea derived from an exhibition at Whitworth Gallery Dark Matters: Shadow Technology Art, where contemporary artists captured light and shadows through luminous marks and negative space:
