Cambridge ♥

I spent Friday and Saturday in Cambridge; it was Anglia Ruskins art school open day... My camera's gone strange - or at least appeared to the other day while in Cambridge - as such, I didn't take many pictures because I wasn't sure they wouldn't be completey terrible. But they've bizzarely and pleasantly come out well. Almost entirely reference shots from a geology museum in a University of Cambridge college, but I honestly could not tell you which one.

Reference Photographs

Pictures taken relatively now-ish that I need to print, keep and draw from. Water, broken glass, sticks and trash. Usual me-things. And me. Huzzah. No more for a while, I promise :)

Contextual Workbook

Didn't want to have to do loads of writing, so I just took pictures of every page.
I only started this one today though, since my large A3 workbook is now both filled and falling apart. Sarah suggested making a context only book and I agreed. I'll post the culminations of my efforts - matched pages from sketch and work books - on here etcetc. On a slightly confused fantasy/reality stream, but it seems to follow rather neatly after all of my summer work looking at 'perceptual assumptions' - my summer workbook proves eternally useful. Anyway, my new sketchbook is called 'Ossification' and I'm looking at how we made real our thoughts etc like children acting stuff out with dolls. Also looking at the objects/ideas we manipulate and how we approach them in the first place. I have a massive love of folk lore / faerie lore / traditional tales / traditional magic / paganism for lack of better word, so that will become more of a guiding light for me I think. Anyway- context book:
