Getting serious with my sketchbook.

 So


Getting serious with my sketchbook. I want to. But it's hard to get off my phone. Currently I'm videocalling my boyfriend on whatsapp on this laptop while hes working. I made some natural dyes.

with acorns I  foraged in highgate woods.

 




I really like the shape of acorns and the texture, it was fun picking them from the ground, some were broken open maybe by squirrels and some were half rotten. It was raining a lot that day, but I saw loads of mushrooms as well( and I made sure to touch them all and squish! I love the textures)

 


This looks like turkey tail. Rings fo green and brown.

Feeling stuck

 I hate being on my period. I feel a bit bored and stuck with my current sketchbook. So I guess that's a sign to start a different project ahha and then I can flit between 2 projects. For the next project I will use the theme of collections. "Collections" is a project that i think is used for the Insights programme. I did do it but I can't remember. And I chucked most of my work from that time bc the house was messy and I hate having too much stuff. Even though I do have too much stuff. Colllection of what? Looking in my gallerry I have lots of pictures of nature: plants, mushrooms, flowers, my allotment. I collected these 4 different leaves. I could use that as a starting point. I'm also thinking of that artist - Andy Goldsworthy who creates sculptures in nature that don't stay forever.  As my foundation tutor would have said it shows the "effervescence of life" or something like that. I think that was his favourite word.  idk or should I look at al...
