Digital Art

I've never been one for digital art, i've always been one of those painters and print makers but this year i've allowed myself to be a lot more open. I've had a wide range of a field of my response to the human figure deconstructed which I have taken various responses to depending on what I am working with.

If you have read my previous blogs I have also created 2D, Printmaking and sculpture pieces all on the same theme, taking different approaches with what works best.

For my digital video art work I have taken the response to deconstruct my own body in various ways and show this in a video format as my response which i felt was the most successful way to do so.

Finished... Finished and finished!

I have finished my final piece! As of months of posting little updates... I know i'm bad at posting updates :( but it's finally here! This is my final piece and it's looking fantastic mounted on the wall! I wasn't too sure on it to start with but now it's up on the college wall I'm starting to like it. It's all ready for presentation tomorrow now!

These four pieces are a set. They are called "Movement".

Each canvas is filled with individual sketches on left behind receipts which I have done whilst at work. Then each canvas shows the different types of shoppers you get and what routes they may take around the store; I have a wondering shopper, a one thing shopper, a lost shopper and a family shopper.

I tea stained each canvas to get rid of the whiteness, I felt the whiteness took attention away from my sketches and also, painting the background didn't work well so I went with tea staining the pieces. I like this effect.

The black markings are made with dragging string along. If I could redo this I would experiment with objects to do this.

Oh I should probably say the brief was to create a response to the human figure in motion deconstructed.

I hope to see a lot of new faces on my facebook page now, not that it's a massively huge facebook page but I appreciate all the support :D.

Long live the left behind receipts.

After months on end of playing around with these receipt sketches that I do at work, I finally have came to a conclusion. I am currently creating this as my final piece now.

To do so, I am going to have 4 canvases, A3 sized with equally sized sketches of customers on receipts ontop of this canvas. I will tea stain each to get rid of the whiteness, bleugh.

Ontop I am going to ink up a piece of string and drag it across the canvas.

My idea behind this is to show the different routes that types of customers may take around the store.

I am specifically looking at the family shopper, the lost shopper, the one thing shopper and the wondering shopper.

Stay tuned for the final outcome! Woo.

Two weeks to go guys, two weeks... RUSH AND PANIC HITS IN NOW.

Sculptor Sculpt scul scu...

Sculpture has never... ever... ever been an area that I have been passionate about. I don't know why... Just something I can't seem to find enjoyment within.

I recently have been working on this relief sculpture. The idea behind it is the human figure in motion deconstructed.  

I don't know. I quite like where this is going.

That time of year

It's getting to that time of year again when college deadlines are very... very close but on the other hand what do we have???

CHRISTMAS!

I am currently doing some of my Christmas shopping which i think is the best part! I love purchasing gifts for others.

I like to have a little personal touch on things also so I have made these hand made items to throw in with presents :).

I find all these adorable! My polymer clay fox with acrylic paint on top. My snowman and penguin mini snowglobs and my sock made snowman. Ahh ti's the season to be jolly... pa la la la la, lalala
