For this weeks drawing day we had to bring in a kinder egg with the children's toys in. This week was all about mark making from a deconstructed 3 dimensional object to create a series of 2 dimensional and spatial drawings. My object was a toy car that just wouldn't deconstruct so I used the object as whole to create different marks on the paper. I first used the actual wrapper to do some 'dust' drawings what I were shown in the first week.
I then went on to use the little container the toy came in. This created different marks as the container was round so didn't have and straight edges.
By painting the toy car in ink each side/angle of the car made a different mark. I didn't think there would be such a variety of marks made from such a small object. Its made me think more about using different things to draw with instead of just bog standard brushes and sticks as you can create much more individual mark making with active and individual materials.
