Illustration Sketchbooks: P4: Research task 4.2 Case study: Brandon J Wallace

I began my research into the work of Brandon J Wallace on his Instagram page:

Instagram.com. (2020). Brandon J. Wallace (@bwallzdraws) • Instagram photos and videos. [online] Available at: https://www.instagram.com/bwallzdraws/ [Accessed 1 Jan. 2020].

Wallace's sketches are fascinating to me, how he is able to capture such mood and emotion including narrative into such a small space. This research task really inspired me and I found myself very excited to try this exercise for myself in 4.2.

Wallace's screen sketches are so interesting to 'read' and inspire me to improve my own work in this way. It's definitely an area of interest for me and something I'd like to explore further.

As I looked through more of Wallace's work I came across his environment sketches, especially ones drawn digitally. This is something I've been really interested in lately and so have included my favourites of Wallace's environments here too.

This research task was a great introduction before exercise 4.2, I will included my further thoughts about this on the next page.

I also looked up Wallace's blog and enjoyed viewing more of his screen sketches and his descriptions of them.
