Sketch book

I also have small sketches and colour charts aswel as photomontge and photoshop in my sketch book.

Photoshop

I tried experimenting with photoshop with the little experience i have.I used the scientist that invented the robotic bee and made a newspaper article on the robotic bee.

Photomontage

A mixture of photography and drawings.I also have collage combined with photos.

Thumbnails and research

I researched articles on bees and there was many on one serious issue.Many bees are dieing  from pestisites and other unnatural processes. They are now trying to develop mecanical bees to polinate the flowers before the bees deteriorate further. I decided to base my project on mecanical bees with a natural background or a natural bee with a chemical background.
