Synechdoche?

Today was hard.

We had to try and think of a synechdoche and illustrate it, to help us with our next task of illustrating a person without just doing standard portraits. I chose to illustrate our friend Aimee's nickname "plant lady". 




Whelp here it is, not my finest work.

Good points:

  • I think I understand now that the point in this was to not illustrate the person but to illustrate the object that we associate with that person, which is hard for me as I now quite enjoy drawing people. But now I know this I can focus drawing objects and other things which I also enjoy and might be a nice change of pace
  • The composition of this is pretty nice, and I know thats not the point in this excersise but its nice to see how the Vis-lang sessions have completely changed my outlook on composition

Bad points:

  • This is definitely not the most creative thing I've ever done, I've literally just drawn the two parts to the image, a flower and a girl, but in future when I know more about my research topic then I'll be able to go more in depth and have better things to say and illustrate
