Nearing the end of my III A5 Moleskine Sketchbook

Is-Ought

Ma'at Synergy

These are a couple of new-ish pages from my moleskine sketchbook, I haven't really been drawing lately which I'm kinda ashamed of but I'll get back into it..
It just takes me a while to feel inspired enough to draw, and reading and observing media is a good way of starting for me, so I read, watch, listen to music and draw simultaneously.. It's long and tedious if I don't have anything in mind, but if I have a spark of an idea then the ball rolls by itself..
'Is-Ought' is something I came across while reading, and in a lot of my sketchbook pages, you may find random pieces of information as letters, drawings or symbols which all stem from my readings, watchings and listenings..
The bottom image is something I'm still working on, I know I'm too precious with my sketchbook pages but when I have finished one to the degree I call finished, they really express exactly what I have been thinking (to me) even if they're understood different than I mean, all is good!
Individual Interpretation is what its all about lol

Speaking Volumes Commercial Project [Court of Puppets]

#1

#2
This is the final piece I wanted to submit for the outside project of Speaking Volumes because I thought I'd achieved the right balance of ideology with craft to produce it. That expresses the controlled conformity and puppeteering which is occurring between all groups, men and women, man and child and shows what is happening with a simple image..
Although I had more ideas, some I thought may be to controversial or 'deep' for a first edition of a new publication, and so went with my most universal idea.

I may produce another piece called, 'The More Words We Know, The More We Can See', which is an extended ideology (not broad enough to be a philosophy), that poses that we do not see with our physical eyes but our minds, and the more words we are attune with, the wider our gauge of material things we can perceive..

Pages from my III A5 Moleskine

Arbitrary
 The above is a double page spread from my sketchbook, as notes and minor research for a project I had in which we had to create a box with a conceptual background which was quite challenging but prevailed in the end.
[it looks like nothing to people but all of it has meaning]

Conformity is the Motto of Society
This was some ideas generation for an outside project relating to a new publication Speaking Volumes and all the illustrators in BA 1st and 2nd year needed to submit something, (although it was proposed as optional), and it needed to speak volumes in some way and so I thought the most obvious and universal projection of this would be conformity or tradition. (or something relating these ideas)
