A1 sheets from the sketches I made whilst at the Botanic Gardens. The leaf cut outs below are done using photocopies of leaves I collected from the floor in the gardens, then used a scalpel to carefully cut/scratch out the shapes of the buildings and trees. |

A series of photographs taken during my week long project of fine art. We were given a spot on the map of Oxford to go to and do a project on, luckily mine landed on the Botanic Gardens which turned out to be really interesting. Although inside the vast and drippy greenhouses was fascinating and beautiful, I found I was far more gripped by the way the plants inside pushed and pressed against the clouded glass and the shapes and patterns this created. |

Charcoal and biro sketch. Below is a sketch of the entrance to the gardens using a mocha I was drinking. There's also a bit of charcoal in it too. In the archway is a list of all the things that were going through my head at that time. It was drizzling so they're not very cheerful. |
