I think this is where my placebook really starts to get a little more colourful as I further add some colours to the autumn trees I sketch and add in some plant life.
At this point, I am very bad at drawing the leafs of the trees as I did not know any techniques in order to improve them so I just scribbled them in.
I took some small plants to see how they would look being stuck into the book and although at the time I thought it worked pretty well, I considered the ethical repercussions of doing this.
There is a popular notion that if you like a plant you pick it but if you love it you let it grow and that really resonated with me when I stuck them into this book. I really like how deep that concept was and so I decided not to continue with that kind of content for the placebook.
This is a photo of a small garden in the park which is decorated with very colourful flowers. In the centre of it was a man made sundial which has been destroyed. I really like the contrast but appropriate aesthetic of the sundial and the natural surroundings. Though they are different they seem to belong together.
