What's the story?

A book of sad faces?

I have been drawing sad faces - maybe this could be a book just full of sad faces from grey days - but is that interesting enough? One sad face is enough really. Maybe I could combine it with jam - sad people and their grey day hobbies? What do you do when you are sad? Buy socks? Food? Jumpers?

I have noticed that blunt edges and lines using masking tape as a template in contrast with bold pencil marks and delicate hatching creates a greater sense of emotion within my drawing - the face is almost being pulled down and separated into heavy blocks of sad blue - emotive

• Drawing with watercolour pencils - blend - thick opaque - smooth - vibrant
• Blue is sad - yellow stock is nice it makes the colours brighter
• Drawing on the back of an old drawing prints some of it onto the previous pages - kind of nice overlayed with drawing
• Look at muscles and the ones you make sad faces with
• Line work - texture - showing strain - sadness - muscles working - movement

Jam man - sad because he day dreams about the jam he can't make now it is too dark.

Maybe he is from Rjukan where it is dark?
