Drawing around Huddersfield:

During a process and production session, we went out into Huddersfield and sketched interesting and relevant things we saw. The aim of the task was to revise our drawing skills whilst also collecting primary research. 

I originally found the sketching difficult as we had to consider perspective and proportion. I feel that the final result of my sketch turned out well and I actually enjoyed doing it. However, because I did the sketch in pen, I  could not redo the centre section of the sketch which should have been the end of the building yet it still went on. I feel that this sketch was successful in some ways, such as the shading and the proportion, yet the perspective could have been better. 

The next study was done in layers on tracing paper. I decided to focus on a logo which includes symbols and typography, which are both relevant to graphic design. I did a layer at a time, starting with the main focus, the logo, and worked outwards to the frame of the logo and an outline of the surrounding buildings. I feel this study turned out well and I enjoyed it. As the day went on, my confidence in drawing was built up again, making it worth while. Drawing on different materials with different backgrounds also was useful and I could use the materials to my advantage.
