Colour



These are some quick illustrations developed from the possessions of Bonnie and Clyde in gouache on paper and patterned paper cut-out.

Guns




Further sketches of Clyde Barrow. While drawing earlier designs for his character I noticed that repeat pattern worked well amongst such rigid and economic lines. Moving on I plan to focus on the idea of imagery repetition- also inspired by a photograph I stumbled upon depicting the numerous license plates registered to different states that were recovered from the death car- I'd like to make a record of some sort cataloguing weapons, hats, shirts, shoes, license plates, bottles, cigarettes etc that acts as some sort of visual 'props cupboard' to represent the lifestyle they lived.
I think I shall also begin to integrate some colour in these studies.
