Weekly Update 4 12/02/2016 - 19/02/2016

This week I have spent time practising my drawing skills, I created Weapon Silhouettes and A short kind-of skeleton tool-kit for the future so I can more easily understand bone structure, as I have a weak understanding of anatomy as of this point.

I also have began a Essay that involves a Duel between Traditional and Digital art, using opinions to argue for me to draw a conclusion at the end,

Still as I sit here snacking on crumpets and tea I feel like my artistic drawing skills are not where I want them to be, this is why I spent alot of time last week also watching Feng Zhu, Draw with Jazza and a new artists I have found called Xia Taptara who is a fairly new artist that paints using a digital workflow on his YouTube channel.

S.W.O.T

Strengths:
Allows me to gain more drive watching the artists and gain inspiration from their processes, Creating Silhouettes helps me understand form and appeal for the future and the Essay has become an interesting study topic, some people actually call Digital art "Not Real Art" needless to say I was slightly offended. Still it is good to see other people opinions

Weaknesses:
The more time spent practising, watching videos and procrastinating, the lest time I ave spend actually doing work and creating art, I have deadlines I need to hit, and I need to hit them well.

Opportunities:
I obtained some new Photoshop rushes from Xia Taptara and learned from him how to use them in certain situations to obtain the look I want, I was also able to create a nice image of a skeleton using a scribbling technique which I don't normally use, so I feel that has given me the opportunity to use that technique.

Threats:
Less and less time on my deadlines if fast approaching and I need to pick-up the pace, I will still get them done but I do not to make them feel (and look) rushed.

For next week; I am going to try and finish my essay, then that is one weight off my mind, I am going to learn how to Harvard reference and use it effectively in a bibliography for all my references.

Art of the Week!
Shanty Town


I was watching alot of things about junk yards and the very clustered urban-jungle NewYork city streets, It was designed to be a safe haven from the outside world which is why the town is so clustered and tall, but it has long been abandoned.
