Tutorial Feedback and Thoughts



The tutorial today helped inspire some new ideas! It was suggested that I look over past work such as the first page I did in response to Murakami during summer, and my woman with trees (see images below) and consider how they are reminiscent of the 60s era (Beatles front cover//60s fashion) this perspective (time era) helped get some fresh ideas going!

Relevance; given Norwegian Wood is set in the late 60s and Murakami's work is very rebellious (disregarded traditional Japanese literature // values) the 60s era seems to encompass a lot of what influenced his work // is apparent throughout his books

Media; the response to my dip pen cat has also been very well received (both in crits and online), so it was suggested I work further with that media; the expressive line weight not only made the image aesthetically pleasing, but also links in quite well with oriental line work, suitable given Murakami’s Japanese ethnicity.
