Set Project: 3D piece sketches/ideas

 Today, I decided to sketch out the ideas regarding the 3D piece. According to my intends from the beginning of my 2D project, after finished pages, I should specify what object I will crave.

It will be a Mr Kite who was my leading character in the song ''Being For the Benefit of Mr. Kite''. It is the only persona which I started 

I made some modification for obvious reasons. I needed to create a three-dimensional posture of him. Therefore, I changed the wearing and added an extra kg. I had a visualisation of his likeness and the silhouette. 



I placed on the top left side reference points; where the sculpture can keep the balance. I was inspired by futuristic sculptures, precisely the constructivist movement, the example here. They made a lot of sketches with directional, guidance lines to keep the expressive form, especially by the figure enlisted as basic shapes. As I did it, I could examine the posture. There will be two sources - one as his right leg, and the second leg stepped on the cirrus trampoline. I implemented this object in the foreground I am planning to paint his attributes in red-green accents. Also, I need to work on the design of his suite. Moreover, I placed a hoop in the middle of his body. During the interpretation of the lyric ''To the Benefit Of Mr Kite!'' I found some of the facts about his character. He can silently do tricks, jumping over horses, men, hoops through the hogshead of a real fire. 

It briefly remarks on his ambitious persona, as a star of the ''tonight'' show. Which definitely, I will be remaining myself on craving. 


Surely, the outcome would not look like on the sketches. I have learnt and discovered that during the process plans may have changed. Therefore, I decided to not pulling as much attention to the details. 

Regarding the hoop, which I consider as a different element, I am planning to use a wire. I would need to have it ready first to implement it straight to the sculpture. Then I will start to shape the form from clay. The trampoline will be made of clay a well. I was considering the different material, however, it would be afterwards impossible to make a construction able to keep the weight of the dried sculpture.


By mistake, I posted the craving part, which supposed to be after this post.

    These sketches describe your idea well in terms of movement, shape and form. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

Set Project: The exact reason why and sketches

 I have not straightened why I chose to illustrate the lyrics. As you may have noticed, I know quite a lot about music from the last century and always dreamed about the connection with visual art. Especially in this case, when the album is laid out as a story. Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity I intend to make something familiar using illustration. You see, songs have a lyric - a story. And I want to share with those, by giving my version. In fact, Primitivism is related to the 60s pop culture and the insights I will publish gradually. The album that I chose is unique in terms of the tracklist.  Sgt. Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band  has no gaps between tracks. Therefore they made an album that sounds like one continuous song. ''Highly debated it is considered as a one of the first concept album'' (The HollyHobs, 2020). Some of the songs had been established according to the newspapers headers/stories.  The reasons why I chose this relation to the theme ...

Art Portfolio: Planning primary research

  For your project, you will need some primary research so that you can either understand your market and focus your work more clearly in a real-world context or you will need background research to inform your project work that comes from a primary source. I conducted research on familiar comic books or something with past matters content. I found a story of the beginnings of The Beatles. It is also related to my project.  The  Baby's in Black: The Story of Astrid Kirchherr & Stuart Sutcliffe  takes reader back to the early 60s, when Paul, John, George, Pete and Stuart decided to extend their musical abilities by playing in Kaiserkeller club, Hamburg. The book was originally published in Germany in 2010. Therefore, the vibe of this book ideally reflects the place and experiences. This ultimate graphic novel has 195 pages. Accordingly black&white design reflecting the title. The author, Arne Bellstorf used individual renditions by pulling a lot of effort into...

Set Project: Sketches and coming back to the first plan

In the last days, I concluded that I should focus on the reasons why I choose this topic and the style of this project. I think I started to be weak and not sure what I want to do. I think the reason is in a large number of researches. Same with techniques and artists to look at. I summarise that I am not capable to mix various inspirations at once. I came back to my first inspiration Anto van Hertbruggen. Because I always wanted to make art like that, no matter what's it gonna take. Here I will discuss the elements which I want to use to combine this pice in one. Here is the whole work with the background. As I mentioned before, I looked at how Anton work on his illustrations. He usually filling few sheets in drawings (as layers for one illustration).  First, I found a great view on google maps. I am interested in the territories of Canada and the northern landscape. The place is in Northwest Territories, in Yellowknife.  click I sketch this place on two sheets of paper. Then...
