Heart of Darkness Initial Sketches

DISCLAIMER: These images are exporations and developmental sketches for The Heart of Darkness, by Joseph Conrad. They are in no way meant to be racist or prejudiced. These particular sketches are uninformed drawings from my head, based on descriptions from the book.

I did these few doodles in class on the first day of BFA (senior seminar, for those who don't know our SHM slang), just to explore some images in my head left from reading The Heart of Darkness. We're spending a bit of time on this novel, so I thought some pre-predevelopment would be fun. I haven't yet begun my research, but I expect I'll find some pretty interesting things to incorporate into future sketches. --L
