Making many roughs for this brief got a little chaotic. I began drawing when I was a bit drunk with the loose idea of looking into a future world and made a bit of a mess. However I found some of my ideas, to sober eyes, rather funny.
In the news at the moment everything is going to shit, Brexit, Theresa May and Donald Trump etc. Everybody seems to be in a state of anger, fear and confusion most of the time and I wanted to play with this. My ideas aim to be sarcastically representing a future where the human race is in great peril, a dig at everyone who seems to think the world will end imminently, when really everything is probably going to be fine.
Developing ideas with non digital media is the next step. Having used Lino cuts a lot recently I want to push my skills further by using them in a different way. I've developed a sort of style when it comes to Lino and I've become pretty comfortable with it, my hope is to get out of my comfort zone using Lino in a different way: cutting all the strange futuristic creatures in Lino but as I would draw them on paper.
