This was one of my favourite drawings from a Friday drawing session, where we had to bring in our favourite pair of shoes to draw. I enjoyed this session as it gave me an opportunity to experiment with different drawing methods, by not making any correspondence with my page as I drew the object in front of me. This took away all control I had of any drawing I created, which was a new experience for me. I really surprised and impressed myself with how well this particular drawing turned out considering it was a blind drawing, and it really reminded me of Claude Heath's work.
CLAUD HEATH
Claude Heath is a contemporary artist living and working in London. I specifically love the process of his work, as he doesn't follow a particular drawing convention. Claude experiments mainly with blind drawings, where he fully removes his sense of sight and draws his chosen object purely through touch of the object. This is a specific technique that I may want to experiment with in the future.
