'Boring Drawings' posits that image-making can be used to explore affective encounters
within learning environments, arguing that the boring, the empty and the mundane speak
more truthfully and viscerally of the everyday encounters and experiences of pedagogy.

This thinking grew from the study Academic Year 2023 – 2024: Exploring Illustration Pedagogy Through Illustration Practice in which I considered the entanglement of three academic identities: teacher, illustrator and researcher.

The aims of this research were to surface findings that can begin to restructure a sense of self within Higher Education, to better understand student experience of illustration pedagogy and to uncover a more nuanced focus for future research.
