Week 22

My Work

Free Fish

Watercolour and Glue on Paper, 2014, 59.1 x 41.5cm

I am continuing with working with dripping media especially with watercolour and glue as watercolour colours blend together nicely and when including glue if forms a pattern. The colours that I am using is relevant to the animal that I am drawing so that even without the full image people are still able to identify it as well as using warm colours so that it is appealing to the viewer. I am starting to work on a bigger scale so that the lines drips are longer making them just as dominant as the image itself, it plays with gravity.

Quack 

Watercolour and Glue on Paper, 2014, 40.3 x 29.5cm

I want to explore gravity and different ways to get a media onto the paper and how it is controlled, such as the dripping and I might start to work over the paper and working on top of it. I will try to use other media to make marks such as masking fluid, string and sticks to see which makes the most interesting patterns but I will still use a liquid media so it is able to drip. I need to look more into the controlled and uncontrolled aspects of my work and if I wish it to be controlled it has to be really out there and show that it is controlled. Also I need to work with what I have and work over the top in different media so that it isn't just flat on the page but also has different layers to the image.
