I follow a guy on instagram who goes by Sunflowerman. He describes himself as a 'Menswear artist, so his work focuses on fashion and style like mine does but on a different section of that area.

     


















 He recently posted two pictures that caught my eye because they are series of works similar to what I'm going for. One is a purely black and white series of very fashion like illustrations (focusing on clothes, a little more gestural) the other a series of more typical portraits coloured in a sort of normal watercolour style. I've been exploring work as series all year through my style work and it's interesting to see two series of work by the same artist dealing with similar subject matter to me. For my series to be exhibited I want to do a series that is linked together somehow like the series that Sunflowerman has done via his use of materials. Out of the two series (both of which I love) I find his black and white one more interesting, this might be because there are more pieces in the series (more is always better) but I also think it may be down to the unity given by only using black and white, each piece works with each other and the monochrome nature lets the work both flow while being intense (both things I want in the series I'm doing).
