we were asked to do a piece of art as a group for the deputy principles office as it were quite bland and boring seen as it was a hospital green. he was into art so decided to go wild. as we were looking into abstract expressionism in contextual studies we came up with doing a jackson pollack idea as it was bright bold quick and effective, especially against that green!
first of all we mixed up a series of colours which i really enjoyed doing
we then went on to choose the size of the canvas and then made up the size with paper to do some trail runs with different colours
we then just went for it each grabbing a colour and walking round which worked - isn
we then decide that the dark colour would probably work better going on first and then the lighter colours on top finishing with the black and white. this system worked well and we weren't bumbling into each other
we did four upscale trails as we'd been doing this style in a different project so we had an idea of what colours worked and what didn't
this is the last one which we rushed just to quickly see what would happen if we changed the colours slightly
i think we all struggled to like this one to begin with, it just didn't seem to be working but we built it up and it ended up looking ok.
this was our second one we did, i really liked this one as it was really bright and did what we set out to do, it was bold and bright and stood out
our first attempt was dull and although all together we liked the colours it just would work for the task we had been given so we used these colours but added others in the end
canvas time! starting off with the darker colours first it was looking good from the offset
the end product worked out really well, it reminded me of a cartoon cover with the colours we chose, i think also we worked well as a team as i think we all bring something different and we aren't all too competitive .
