I find this project exciting and a good opportunity to push my skill and develope them. I look forward to the chance of been able to create a book, this is somthing I have been waiting to learn for a while. For the untold story I chose to visit the York railway museum but I changed my mind and felt it would be better to not plan to visit anywere and do this spontaneously because With a destination in mind I couldn't help my self but begin to think of the things j could draw there I was already plotting story's and what not. So it would be better to just hit the road and see what I get from a body of work.
After a long cold morning of been told you can't draw this and your not aloud here I found my self desperate and unmotivated later I ended up at a antique shop.
• a collection of photos from the shop
Some facts about the shop
• they rent out there items to film colleges and to the itv center for props for dramas
• they allow members of care homes to visit there shop to be reminded of the younger past
• the shop is always freezing
• I found my self obsessed with the 1940 items. The history with in them and the story's they tell with there ages body.
I asked my grandparents if they recall any of the items and they did, and the story's that went with them was amazing!
• one of my favourite story's was my grandads old footballs tails from his teens. " we used to play with them footballs... All leather, all heavey if you hit them with the wrong side of your toe you would know about it. If you was in the box waiting for an header and you saw the leather stitches coming in for your head, you knew you was going for stitches your self. Many Sunday's I was at the drs with a cut forehead or a broken toe.
• I drew these glasses because I was in love with the age of them and in my mind was thinking how many things these have seen how many story's, and history they could tell.
