Child's work

After my tutorial with Tiffany on Friday I decided to make a trip back home to gather my old work. Going back to my design philosophy and the original mood boards that I had put together with Naomi, I saw that my interests defiantly stem from my childhood.
I therefore looked into my drawings from what I had done when I was a child. This proved to be very insightful to me as my younger self. I also think it will be interesting taking elements from these drawings to make my photo-shoot more personal.

I love this image of my happy things from when I was 6. I think it may be quite good to take elements like the skipping rope into my shoot.
This is a story I had obviously made up and drawn too and my mum had written out for me. Looking back through my work I can clearly see that I was defiantly a visual person. When it comes to writing I could barely write but I seem to have huge amounts of drawings.
I actually remember drawing this picture of the girl in the field of flowers. My mum was teaching me how to draw flowers - I would draw a line, then a v then a colourful dot.
Looking through my work I can see a recurrence of a rabbit. Not too sure why this is as I didn't actually own a rabbit till I was about 8 and these drawings are much earlier than that.
I used to use my middle finger and index finger and draw round them to make the ears then draw the rest of the body on.
I think a rabbit will defiantly need to feature somewhere throughout my shoot as this was obviously something I loved as a child.
