I feel as if I create a small general body of work as an introduction to this project, this will assist in directing me towards a more concise outcome. So I created a series of artworks based on emotions I was feeling at the time, which I can then compare to artworks I create later on in the project.
To start off, I created somewhat of a caricature of our current Prime Minister, commenting on his response to the pandemic and his attitude towards Northern regions. It is not uncommon for the North to be disregarded, however I was particularly disgusted with his disregard of small businesses and artists. So I produced this as a response.

The next drawing was made as a sort of therapy piece, where I produced it when trying to relax. I enjoy crosshatching and shading in practice, and find it a relaxing experience, which is why this drawing is so heavy in terms of shading. It is quite graphic, and was improvised during the creation process.

The next drawing is titled as 'Storms', which was created out of stress. This is evident from the varying densities of line that define the shading and tone of this image. I personally really like this work as I feel like it is really emotive, and it represents the overall theme of the project in terms of expressionism and art therapy.
