Fine Art Week, starting the 24th of September

Using a metaphor from song lyrics to produce an image



Playing with paint, colour, line, mark making, texture, printing, repetition
Tuesday's piece....

Close up of a hand print. 

first I used white paint which I made run down and across, then I added hand print and black paint and made that run and bleed with white. 


Close up of a hand print, swirled






I added 5 different bright paints and used a vase to roll across so the paints merged together



I took prints from the wet paint onto pale pink and bright yellow paper. 


I got complimentary colours straight from the tubes and squeezed them into a circular shape. 


Close up and the colours bleeding together


I took prints from the wet paint onto pale pink and bright yellow paper. I think the pink works better as the yellow is too bright and distracts your view. 

3D Design Week

the object I was drawing from....


Pencil drawings from the object



Close up ink drawings

Paper 3D model, trying to recreate the screw



Using only paper we had to create a light fitting/Lamp Shade

finished lamp shade. It has a natural feel to it with the circular shapes and leaf like sides.

Fashion Week

Week 1, 10th of September

Fashion


We used the half scale front bodice pattern to create a strong and interesting shape which we then developed into a from on the mannequin's. I used the same shape repeated numerous times in a diagonal direction across the body creating a flowing continuous cape. We then drew from the mannequin onto paper of what we had created and produced 4 variations.
