DEGREE SHOW: The Niveous Deer

Image
I began to draw the final drawings, I plan to do 30, and a book cover. First are the drafts, and then I drew the line works. I have 5 chapters of the story, for each chapter has 6 images. I tried my best to tell the story by images because I want the audience can understand the story through my drawings. Finally, I finished the 30 images, almost 2 days for 1 drawing, used digital drawing, photoshop, and next step I need to add script inside the book and think about the layout. Below is the drawing for the book cover, and also for the poster. The Story: Prequel 1. A long time ago, there was a little kingdom, the kingdom was peaceful and harmonious, and it was administrated by a young prince. 2. However, after years and years, the prince witnessed so many births, senilities, illnesses and deaths, that in his opinion, were so very painful. 3. The prince was terrified of death. In order to avoid it, he decided to leave his kingdom a

PROJECT: Selling Yourself

Image
This 'selling yourself' project asked us to put ourselves into the illustration system, understand how the art market works. 14 Personally Important Firstly, made some little drawings about ourselves, ‘personally important' what do I like, What do I afraid, etc. On the first workshop, we put our drawings on a big A1 paper and were given some object words, to describe each other's works. Really funny, the descriptions I received are like, artisanal, pop, complex, palette, stylised, harmonious, and many others. I have to say everyone has different opinions, even though their opinions could be completely opposite.   Micro Marco Diary Then, next week's task was MICRO MARCO DIARY, which I didn't quite understand its meaning. Anyway, just started to draw from my daily life. And it was a really casual record, no special rule in my life. I began to think about how I looks like

PROJECT: LBS-London Experience

Image
This term I have spent lots of times in Museum, Natural History Museum, Science Museum, British Museum, etc. I found it's really a nice way to learn or find information, every time I go there I can see new stuff. Sketches from 'the clockmakers' collection' exhibition. These are the drawings from an exhibition in Science Museum, about the clock.  At the beginning, I just thought those clocks are beautiful and drew them down. Free drawing related.  Those are 3 free drawings about the museum as well, nothing special meaning, but just free imagination about the stuff in Science Museum. London Business School Competition   Then, I intended to use this theme for the LBS project, it's a project about London experience for London Business School. After having tutorials, I needed to think about how to connect my idea about the museum with LBS, like finance. I find there is an exhibition about currency in British

ROTATION:Reportage

Image
So, it's our rotation project now. The first on of our group is "people and places" with jay. The primer task is to find a place you are familiar with or you want to know in London, and stay there try to feel that atmosphere, to see the people. Do the drawing, writing, 30 pages about everything of the place. EAT TOKYO I picked the 'Eat Tokyo' first (the one in Holborn). It's a Japanese restaurant. My friend and I go there after each assessment, so it's like a little celebration to us. You can tell how much I love this place. I went there again for the primer task and tried to record everything about it. The people, the food, or the environment. However, after the briefing on Friday, I had changed my mind, as our aim is drawing an illustration to introduce the places in London to next year's students. I thought a restaurant may not be the best choice, so I plan to draw a bookshop 'Forbi

ROTATION:Editorial

Image
The last project of rotation is "Editorial" with Luke. It's our first time to draw depend on an article. We had  2 articles to do. The first article is about Squatters.   1.Squatters, homeless people and empty buildings---use labyrinth(the road in the drawing) to show how hard if the homeless people want to find a place to live in. 2.Squatters, homeless people and empty buildings---the people in the drawing is the reflection, there is something(maybe a window or glass) obstruct the people, so they cannot touch the buildings.I even try to draw each building on a people's reflection, so it's matching. The second article is about surfing.  I did some lines drawing first. These images are all about waves, how exciting the sport is, and good waves make a good contest, crummy waves make contest unwatchable.  I try to include 2 opposite scenes in one drawing. I drew waves shapes from "roller coaster", to show how

PROJECT: Competition

Image
This is the last project of the first term, the competition one. We are asked to join a competition from the list. After struggling for time, I picked opera one. The briefing is: The Royal Opera House and AKA, the international entertainment marketing agency, are challenging you to create a campaign that will encourage culturally engaged young people aged 20-30 to experience opera for the first time. You need to show how your idea will work as an advertising campaign – across digital, print, out of home and social media advertising . Actually, I haven't think about this project carefully at the beginning, I picked this only because I'm always interested in things related to music, Opera is one of this type. And I really want to draw something depend on this theme, even though I found the final is quite complicated to complete for an Illustrator (it's kind of like graphic design's field). Anyway, I chose the Opera theme, so, I began to do any ima
