Summer Drawings
I found the peer review I received in
response to my summer work the be highly formative, key themes and
direction was highlighted in my work and many possible areas of
exploration. I was told there was a good variety of techniques within
my drawings, but areas to develop and venture into could be;
experimenting with different grounds, combining techniques, and
producing some drawings on illustrator or photoshop with focus on
line. Also exploring different scales when I draw was recommended,
zooming into past drawings really changed the feel of the piece and
displayed new textures, colours balances, and gradients, all aspects
that could be redeveloped into my work.
Form in Nature and Life, A. Feininger
The most important feedback I received,
I feel, was direction on my overall concept. Even though I had
centred on Stacking for my summer work I did not feel confident
enough to continue with it, my peers upon assessing my work felt that
my nature inspired drawings were the most successful, containing the
most colour, pattern, and texture. Guided by this new subject I went
to the library to discover more about the possibilities and found
'Form in Nature and Life' by A, Feininger, a book filled with nearly
all the artistic elements from nature. This book alongside my new
Pinterest boards has inspired a new line of enquiry for my oncoming
project.
