My work is mostly targeted towards children, so it definitely has a childish/childlike element to it. It's all about imagination and magic. It is often based around character and narrative, tapping into other worlds and describing fantastical landscapes. I value a handmade approach.
How would others describe my work?
I would say delicately crafted/focus on crafts(wo)manship, high attention to detail, refined narrative, tactile. I think composition is also a strength, I'm especially thinking of the animations you've done, which kind of reinforces the point about narrative.
Magical, characterful, with storytelling and narrative at its core. Its all about creating worlds in which these dolls and figures exist.
Everything has a handmade feel.
How do they compare?
They're very similar! I'm pleased that my intentions do come across. Maybe I should ask my intended audience though (children), especially since the people I asked are all my peers so they know what I am trying to achieve? They might just be saying these things to please me.
The comment that I was really happy with was 'imagination driven', because that's exactly what all of this is and exactly what I want to capitalise on.
