Reportage Brief

I drew these observational drawings for my 'Reportage Brief'. The aim of the brief was to draw 3 drawings a day throughout a course of 11 days. The minimum amount of drawings that were to be produced was 30. All drawings had to be from observation and any media could be used. I have selected these 8 pages from my sketchbook as my best ones and I had included them into my mini zine book which the brief stated that we should make. I didn't stick completely to the brief, I drew things on random days and therefore lost track of what else needed to be drawn, but it was fun because that meant I only drew stuff when I felt like I was in the drawing mood.

I did have fun with this brief as it got me into drawing from observation a bit more but I also found it rather difficult. I found it hard to draw objects that were moving such as people and running water. The only bad thing that I can say is that I feel like I didn't use enough mixed media as most of my drawings consist of only pen and pencil.
