Sketchbook work

After the exhibition, I have decided to take a turn in my work as I have been very inspired by Egon Scheile. He represents himself as malnourished in his pieces and this could relate to my meaning as I can show how being mentally starved of company and human interaction can make you feel. I can do this my making my sketches/sculptures to appear extremely skinny. To start experimenting with this, I used some of the photos I decided not to display in my album with oil pastel and turpentine on photo paper to create an overlay of skinny parts of the body. Although the mannequin in the photos looks intact, the layer over the top suggest that mentally he is not.
