Sketchbook

This is the beginnings of my Sketchbook..I basically started off with a mind map and then started working with the movement of lights,blurring and experimenting with long exposure times on my camera.I found an artist Alexandra Pacula who paints urban night-life scenes that really capture light and  movement but I kind of got bored with working from just light so I went on with the idea of using long exposure times to capture different typed of motions. I looked up the artist Francesca Woodman and seen that she used long exposure times to capture the movement of the subject, and in her case the subjects were mostly people so I decided to try and do that myself. I went from that and started thinking about my interests and I'm fairly interested in sport so I did a few sketches of boxers. I came across an artist called Steve Huston who has a few paintings of boxers too..I think his paintings capture the movement and energy really really well so I think it would be interesting to maybe try and do some work like that..
