DESIGN PROCESS
Delve into the various examples of my design methods and developmental sketchbook techniques. Ranging from 3D/material world exploration, playing with differing mediums like collage, paintwork, technical drawing, draping and subject-specific drawing. These processes are what drive my design and concept forward and constantly evolving.
