Today I worked a bit more on the mark making.
It still all feels a bit random to me.... so far removed from the way I usually work.
When I design a doll for example, in my head I know exactly what the doll looks like, right down to the tiniest detail. From that finalized picture in my head, I start breaking it down and create my design.
The mark making did make me think of Picasso though, I really like "Girl before a mirror" and I think it's a great example of mark making.
Now this got me thinking…. I found a great drawing by Picasso and decided to create a little exercis of my own, trying to identify the marks he used.

This is a fabulous blog. Your idea to make marks based on Picasso's work is very clever. You have made a good start to the course - much better than I managed - & I really like your sketchbook work.
