Observational Drawing From A Car Boot Sale
These drawings were quick sketches I completed whilst at the car boot sale, using pencil. I think they might have turned out better if I had used a black fine liner pen, because once scanned in, the drawings don't stand out very much, and don't have a large enough conrast with the white paper. I think they reflect the theme of nostalgia because they show people selling their own memories, which I think would trigger a strong feeling of nostalgia for the people in the drawings.
Evaluation Of Images
I chose to work with these photographs, because I think they all reflect the theme of nostalgia; some of them are nostalgic for myself, but I didn't want to concentrate on my own nostalgia, I wanted to look at it for other people as well. Therefore, some of these photographs are nostalgic for older members of my family, and show events which happened before I was born. The different photographs show different events and circumstances, which I think would trigger a feeling of nostalgia.
