This is a picture of a page from my sketchbook. I began to look at an apple as it decayed to show the movement of time. I took pictures and did quick sketches, it was from these that i progressed onto my thumbnail drawings in different mediums!

When i talked to my tutors they said that i should look at ageing and wrinkles everywhere and not just in fruit so i took a few pictures of a tree on the college grounds. I found the bark on the tree fascinating the way it kind of weaved.

In relation to architecture I began to look at some of the cracks in pavements and walls and at the peeling if paint. All which to me seem like signs of ageing.

On the way to college one morning I came across a gate where a lot of rusting was visible. This is another sign of movement of time and so i took a photo which i then used for creating my multiples of thumbnail drawings.
