Eden Project

Sculpture made from newspaper straws and masking tape. Inspired by the beautiful and exotic shapes of plants in the Horticultural centre.

Observational drawing of exotic flowers and plants in Horticultural centre using different media such as fineliner, pencil, graphite and charcoal.

Watercolour study.

Development piece.

Final outcome in progress.

I created this piece in the Wythenshawe Horticultural park. It is a black and white painting with colourful acetate butterflies on top. The idea of black and white landscape came from Paul Morrison's work. The composition is developed by creating various thumbnails and selecting the most successful ones for the final outcome.
