I really enjoyed using ink to block out large spaces, as it made me consider negative space in a way that I hadn’t before. For the whole project, I felt as though I was learning how to draw again, which was both a good and bad thing because I feel as though I really don’t know how to draw anymore however I’m starting to develop... something. Before when I looked at my work, I couldn’t really differentiate myself from other people but now I’m seeing hints of myself in my illustrations. On my independent day, I used my journey to and from Kingston to do some observational drawing. The day started like a complete nightmare because I foolishly left my folder of materials on the bus, but luckily I had only done a handful of small drawings. At this point I felt pretty low but I went home, collected myself, found some more paper and went out again. Overall I’m happy with my observational drawings, although I wish I had done more.

Gelatin in space! Looks a bit like a tadpole when it is floating around, but I promise it was a tasty treat for us on the Space Station. The food lab prepared drink bags with gelatin mix inside, and I made gelatin for the crew. It is very tempting to play with your food when it floats.
