These are my first two attempts at editing drawings on Photoshop, by simply filling in colour it accents certain elements and creates a mood.
As I did more of these I learnt how it worked and could draw more purposeful lines. The way the colour filters through different sections where two ends don’t quite meet creates some interesting outcomes, and presents a more thought provoking image, so I was much more aware of the way I was drawing the original images to use the colour editing successfully. The drawings are mostly of a domesticated subject matter, I attempted drawings of other environments but didn’t find it as appealing; perhaps due to the personalised, intimate aspect of my own belongings and habitat.
I experimented with presenting my drawings as grouped pieces. I started to see a theme emerge among the colours being used and thought of the option to have a range of repeated images.
