Twin Peaks Personal Project





 A bar in Leeds advertised that they wanted to host a Twin Peaks art night in January and Twin Peaks is my FAVOURITE tv show ever and I never get to talk about it because literally NO ONE watches it, so I was super excited to try and participate. (I decided I'd make work regardless of whether they wanted my work in the show or not because I've wanted to make Twin Peals inspired art for ages tbh). I started by using my Twin Peaks Pinterest board where I collect screen caps of all my favourite scenes and shots because the cinematography of the show is one of my favourite things, the vibe is so gorgeous and the music is ridiculous I just love it.

I did some sketching using these photos as ref and came across my first problem. basically I really like my usual liney, detailed, spaghetti hair style but also I really like the pencily more blobby simplified style as well so idk??? which one do I use????? I'm going to try out both but I want to make a set of a few prints and I'm not sure which style I'll choose because I like both for different reasons. SUCH A HARD DECISION. like are the blue colours too cool/but they give a nice cool moody rainy vibe. would pencil look nice but with the colours of the show?? what kind of colours would I use if working in the other way? would it be coloured? I think the pencil aesthetic is stronger or more poignant idk but the other way of drawing would be far more recognisable for twin peaks fans and play on that aesthetic more (luv dat twin peaks aesthetic). Not sure atm but I'll keep recording this process and hopefully the final show/or the selling of these prints. I'd love to make an accompanying twin peaks zine too!! I miss making zines.
