MY STATEMENT
For Centuries Churches are at the centre of the Urban Environment extending their influence both politically and socially, and for this reason I chose St. John’s Church as my source in my project The Urban Environment. Through photography and analytical drawings I got to know my source quite well, looking at the stone, its texture, colour studies and observing the lighting at different times of day.
From there I have utilised Photoshop to manipulate my photos and drawings, I like the way Photoshop can be used to compose an image in preparation for a painting. At the moment I am experimenting with Casting, and have made a cast of part of a railing.
My Aim is to move away from drawing, push my boundaries, think outside the box to see what I can create, I want to urbanise the church and develop my project through colour.
