These are my final pieces for our project working with Gwent levels for which I created stencils of species found on the levels and spray painted them. I found this project to be enjoyable as I got to use the stencils and spray paint, however it was also challenging as I have very little experience in illustrating animals and plants. It was also a useful project as it allowed me to experience doing illustration work in the real world.

These pieces are my final outcomes for our live brief with the Gwent Levels. We were required to produce 12 illustrations of 12 different species using any illustration techniques. I chose to use a combination of graphite pencils and watercolour paint for my final illustrations.

These illustrations were a part of the 'Wetlands Project'. I created these pieces in the style of vintage 1950's anatomy. I wanted to give a lino cutting style using procreate. I wanted to share these pieces as they are the best work I have created in my first year of illustration. I was finally able to find my style of art and how I present my art with vivid lines as detail. Each of my pieces were created using procreate and lino printing.

These are the 12 Illustrations I created for the Living Levels ‘Wild Watch’ project. The aim of this project was to create a set of Illustrations of different species. I decided to create these illustrations as a set of tarot cards, gathering inspiration from vintage illustrations. Each illustration was created using watercolours and fineliner, allowing me to capture a worn vintage aesthetic. The text and card template were added digitally.

These are the illustrations I created for my live project with Our Living Levels, who aim to reconnect people to the heritage of the Gwent Levels.
We were tasked with illustrating twelve species relating to the Gwent Levels. I drew each species with pen and ink and digitally manipulated them in Photoshop, to create unusual and striking final pieces that I hope will bring pleasure to others.
I thoroughly enjoyed this project and hope to have the opportunity to work with this client again in the future.

I have produced 12 illustrations of different species that live in the living levels in Gwent. These are my favourite pieces I have created during this academic year, since the whole set look cohesive and captures my style. I tested out different media and used the one which looks most realistic to the animal, which meant I did not use the same techniques for each species. However, I did use ink for all the background since I wanted a soft, almost blurry background of their habitat. Some species did blend in so I created a white border, giving an almost sticker effect to make them stand out.

These illustrations are my final outcomes for our live brief with the Gwent Levels. We were required to produce 12 illustrations of 12 different species using any illustration techniques. I chose to use a combination of fine-liner backgrounds featuring scenes from the Levels and digital colour for the species illustrations.
