Continuing
from my Summer project and onto the Bradford Brief I decided to look back on my
catalogue of photographs and I picked out the one I felt most inspired me. I
have chosen to base the next project on the incredible colour and tones and
the amazing marks and pattern that is encapsulated in that one image. I feel
very confident in its potential.
Selecting two parts of this image, the lively colour
palette and the movement from the photograph, I was able to come up with a
number of mark making drawings expressing exactly what my work was all about.
Unpicking the positive feedback from my two tutor critical presentations, I made a decision to stay away from 'chalky looking' media and designed a whole development folder of work using brusho, ink and bleach, giving my work a flatter and wetter appearance. This allowed me to see what worked best with both my
pattern and composition, and I began to do some tester work on thick cotton fabric to see what kind of dying ideas I could use for my sampling. I dyed and played around with a number of samples, the bottom image is the best outcome.
