The Illustrated Self - Initial Roughs, Train Window

This one was influenced by a personal experience that I had a while ago when sat on the train and looking out of the window at all the suburbs and lives flashing past beneath me. There was something almost comforting about looking in on these lives from the outside, more satisfying than actually living those lives, but being a quiet observer, unobtrusive. 

This reflects my interest in life but also my hopes for next year and my practice in the future. I want to present people's lives, real stories and capture that feeling of looking in quietly on lives other than our own. There is something very Hopper-esque about this idea.

This would be etched.

I feel like this idea may work better in my presentation though, as a introduction and inspiration for a proposal for next year.
