Movements of light



These pictures were taken by using the night mode on my digital camera, because of the long shutter speed the lines create new shapes. The first picture is by the side of a busy road and the blue lights were from a casino. I like how the lines all kind of follow the same trail with a few exceptions.

This second picture was taken at a club with all the different strobe lights. However for this one i moved the camera move so it has created these more curved shapes. I think that this would be really good to draw from, especially the three lines which are joined together.

Final project- Movement




Movement is the theme for my final project. I want to work in an abstract way and focus mainly on the idea of lines and movement. These are some of my initial photos which i took showing both movement and line. Next i will simplify these images by drawing them just using line. I will stick to using black at first and as i have worked out how they look together i will think about incorporating some colour with it. I would also like to work with the idea of drawing with movement.
