Art trip

On our trip we visited two different places in order to inspire our future projects and our current one of ‘who am I’. The places we visited were Oxford University Museum of Natural History and Ashmolean Museum. When we visited these, we took pictures of objects and paintings that we found interesting we also did small sketches. I enjoyed the Oxford University Museum of Natural History more because I found it much more interesting as I felt like there was a wider range to observe and it opened my mind more to different things.

I mostly took pictures because it was a more practical and efficient technique of capturing as much as I could in the short time we had. Here are just a few of my personal favourites.

this bat picture inspired me because it contained so many different textures and it was also slightly rustic due to the very minor holes in the wings.

 I also liked this insect because the colours on it are so bright, it caught my attention straight away which I want to happen with my art.

I thought this beehive piece was so interesting because it was like a small snapshot of their way of living and the bright silver bees stood out so much against their dull habitat.
