Anatomy Abstract is what comes to mind.....

I have chosen to look at the anatomy for my drawing studies, with a twist as I love playing with shapes and color and form.  So far I have drawn a sketch in fine liner of the skull of the skeleton in the studio, I have drawn two sketches of images from my anatomy book.

Here are my sketches......

The front of a Knee without the cap.

I found this image inspiring, I think I can incorporate this into an abstract drawing.

Below is an enlarged fully grown bone, showing the microscopic cells and tissues.

I have made copies of my sketches so I can work into them with a range of different drawing materials, to see how I can abstract them.  I found this one above interesting as it could become many things, like strange building or world, factory or machine of some kind.  No matter how I go about it each viewer will perceive it  differently, that's what I love about abstracting things.  

Above is the sketch of the College skeleton I done in studio time, fine liner.

I enjoyed scribbling it done on the page loosely.  The more I built up on it the more it became detail and came together.

Some Things I've read.......for contextual studies...

Anyone who see's this post should check out these articles they are interesting food for thought......

Turning this picture on it's side I have abstracted it by taking it away for a sky pic, I could manipulate this further into a more abstract piece in the future.

Yesterday is the most amazing sunset I've seen so far on my journey home....
