Obsession Project PART 1&2

In this project I have been asked to choose an obsession and make a story from it. An obsession is something that you would think about most of the time. I went to the Tate Modern to look at some artists who express there obsession with their work. The three artists that I chose was Anish Kapoor, Clause Monet and Fernand Leger. Next I commenced this project by making a list of the things that I like and what I think about and chose three; these were:

Happiness/Innocence, 
Cartoons: Disney,Pixar, Studio GhibliHistori
cal Clothing of the Past
I then chose one obsession from the three (Happiness/Innocence) and created a story. The plot was about me and my father reading a book which was about a Prince call
ed Belshazzar who had to get his mother's violet and silver brouche from his evil Un
cle Leon. As the book reaches a cliff-hanger, my father departs to make some food and try to th
ink about how the story would end. Within minutes I drift into the book itself and find his
 cousin Princess Debbie, who would need my help to save him.....

After writing the plot, I started sketching the basis of the story, the images all together make thirty-seven. The real images were drawn onto cartridge and water-colour paper. Next, I will photocopy these drawings and copy them onto a new sheets of paper. There is a likely chance that I will use water colour paper. The originals will be kept and shown for the exhibition that will be held next year.

Here are first few of the drawings that I am going to use:































































































































These two drawings will be fused together to make one image.
