Different settings for Mary Anning

As Mary Anning's career was started on the beach it was obviously to start in that setting I used photo graphs that were similar to Lyme Regis beaches as my starting point to base my drawings off of. I wanted to experiment using traditional and modern media so that I could see if my watercolour would translate on to animation digitally. Overall the watercolour approach was very effective, however, when drawing on an Ipad with an apple pencil I was finding it difficult to define the edges and make the picture look attractive. The drawing as a whole looks very blurred digitally so moving forward I will be using the traditional drawings as my starting point for my work.
When attempting different settings apart from the beach I decided to research what her fossil depot looked like and expand on that. Even though I used a ruler and tried to measure out my proportions the finish look to my recreation of the original picture looks uneven and very different. to improve this I will make the town setting less realistic and try to simplify the buildings as I know that will look more effective than this first outcome.
