St Mary's Church

Part of the brief is to produce an illustration of a famous landmark in Stockport, the landmark i chose to illustrate is St Mary's Church.
I chose this landmark because as part of my previous work illustrated Stockport's Market Hall which is right next to the church so i thought it linked it together nicely.

 This was one of the drawings i produced but it was to simple and when i changed it from a pencil drawing to an ink drawing i felt it ruined it. So i decided to try something else and turned to lino printing.
It's still simplistic i tried it with different colours but decided the black and white looked best.

I scanned the print onto the computor and played around a bit with it, with my previous work i duplicted my print of the market hall and made it almost like a shadow and i decided to do the same thing with the church. It works and it just links all my work together, the only thing i might do is play around with background ideas and maybe make some using tissue paper and paint just to maybe try and add a bit off texture to the background.
