Manchester building project


This  project was about old and new Manchester.  I took 80 photographs of old and new Manchester buildings. My favourite part of the project was experimenting with different medias.  I also did some observational  drawing's of old Manchester using charcoal. Then I used water colour to depict new Manchester.  I then merged the two pictures of mix media in photoshop.I added traffic light colours as  gradients and placed a map of Manchester as the back drop.   

In this second picture  I was influenced  by an unusual  Victorian building made of glass with a white frame. I reconstructed what I saw in dip pen and ink.  I  also did a brick building in dip pen and ink and then I merged the two ink images and used photoshop to manipulate the colour and reflect the images. Then I added a map and a black banner with manchester on it.
