City and roads

The first year of my art course was very important to me, it built up my skills and showed me what direction to head in...basically to stay away from printing, and to stick with painting!

So here is the first ever project I ever did; my City and roads project in a nutshell..

Some quick small studies in paint, watercolour and chalk of roads

Some more painting studies

 collage using my own enlarged imagery

tonal drawing of traffic

 A gold card print of traffic

Collage of my own imagery, with paint on top

 trying out some oil paints...I think its supposed to be a heavily abstracted image of blurry car lights on a fast road.... I'm not sure.

another watercolour

So as you can see, I have definitely improved over the years!!
