EVERY SAINT HAS A PAST AND EVERY SINNER HAS A FUTURE

As I begin to get more and more wrapped up by my final major project for college this blog will probably start to take one direction: The Future. This is what I've decided the theme's going to be and something that I've been researching throughout my Easter. I was looking at famous quotes about the vast subject and I ended up picking Oscar Wilde's "Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future". For me this quote is about the corruption and downfall of the world as the more we progress and go on the more we seem to fuck the world up and the more society and the connections between nature and humans seems to fall apart.

As a starting idea I would like to end up with some drawings and an animation which is short and a collage maybe with the quote being read out. I would like to go bigger with my drawings maybe some A1 sized drawings as this is something I often fail to do but I'll see what happens.

Recently I've been looking a lot at the work of Gary Panter as his vast influence on many of the illustrators I like is really strong. When I was on his website browsing I found the section of his work which is all light shows. I've been into light shows for a while without really knowing too much about them or making any myself. Panters use of line over a use of bold colours is something which translates well into illustration as well as lights and something I'll look at for my animation projection. I also like the more abstract ambient shapes that he uses which has a very Sci-fi feel and looks like some sort of projections of space.
