Tutorial: Unit X


My group tutorial with Nigel really helped me to gather my ideas. Constructive criticism was extremely prevalent within the work that I showed; and also seeing the other girls work was enough to push me into getting back into it, giving me ideas and feeling motivated again. One aspect of my work that was picked up on was my colour palette, and how it needed to be more refined in order for me to gain a collection with similarities, which I have taken on board (as shown underneath). I feel that these colours really reflect the theme of fairground, and also complement each other really well.

 
 
Discussions also turned to design development, and talking through where I wanted to go with my visual research. I seem to have a lot of photographs, but further developing these has become a task. The visual research (as seen on a previous post) where I’d used dyes to merge colours was a prominent feature in my work, and this is now my starting point towards finalising my ideas.

As a way of addressing this problem, I reverted to dying/ painting on my new photographs with my finalised colour palette. This was a successful, informative and helpful task as it allowed to me to experiment with the merging of colours (that we'd talked about within my tutorial), whilst also juxtaposing this with the shape and lines within them.
