THE FIRST SHOP I SKETCHED
I was attracted by the jewelry and decorations in the shop. Mainly silver jewelry and wood works, mostly western style fantasy, such as skulls, crosses and medicine bottles. There are also a few buddhist statues and candlesticks which are the Oriental style.
iPAP YR US
A shop which sells 3D postcard,
We think the 3D paper cutting is very neat and have high artistic value.
We can also find some postcards that related to our projects.

THE MOST INTERESTING SHOP
This shop is full of old cameras. Many of them have already put of print, not sure that if they can still using, maybe some of them are just models. Retro style collectors may love there.
FAVORITE SHOP
This shop sells many old objects which include paintings, doorplates, winebottle, sculptures and etc.
We bought a Phrenology sculpture here.
We spent many hours to find an object we both like. In this aspect, we are carring our own "favorite" emotions and we also need to consider abut each other's emotion. Therefore, this object is better related to emotion, and the Phrenology sculpture has a direct connection with emotion.
Day 3
Camden Market
Rule:
[Focous on Shop]
-the style of shop must related to our PPP topics.
-find sth. can be the reference of our PPP projects.

WOOL DOLL
These handmade dolls are made by wools. I t's a way of using woold which I didn't try before, looks very interesting.
ILLUSTRATION
I can feel strong emotion from these illustration. The drawing style of these illustration is also very ingenious.
CYBERDOG
A shop which all the products are about future world.
I found many products have the elements of "lines".
FLUORESCENCE SOFT PIPE: a kind of material I have never seen before. I think it's also a kind of special line.
THE HAIR OF FEMALE ROBOT: it's made by wool, but showed very natural effect of hair.
FLUORESCENCE LINES ON THE CLOTHES: the design is simple and dynamic, hsd strong sense of depth.

OUTCOME
The final outcome of commue week includes my commue book, the photos we took along the way and the interesting things we bought. I took it with me to every markets and do some life drawing of new and interesting things we found. The advantage of sketching is that it can quickly record the feelings at that time, and I do not need to really care about the details of drawing. The overall feeling is more important, and people can feel my mood at that time, whether it is happy, relaxed or tired. We think art is everywhere in life, it’s around us. It could be a photograph we take at random, a delicate ring or a well-chosen postcard.
