The Twinings Teapot Gallery.

During the last term of my first university year, I have been researching into tea and tea wares. The research I have collected has been used to create a 24 page, hand bound book. I gathered information from the Twinings Teapot Gallery, which is situated inside Norwich Castle Museum. The museum itself holds the largest collection of British ceramic teapots, over 3000 pots are based inside the museum.

I created a large series of development work, experimenting with many different mediums to see which worked best for the narrative I was trying to portray. I used etchings to create the basis of my illustrations for the final book, and added areas of paint and ink to make each piece different and more interesting. 

Here are some scanned images of my development work.
