Exhibiton Now - All the final pieces together

This the final piece for the Exhibition. All our individual works show our interpretation of the photograph we chose.

Over all working as a group went well!

Exhibition Now - Progression of photo

This is my progression of my painting. I have been using water colour, inks and then charcoal after to define some areas.

Exhibition Now - start point of my photo

This was my chosen photo and below is the start of my interpretation of the photo.

Exhibition Now

Exhibition Now was my first mini group exhibition at the start of my year in Fine Art.
This is our idea we came up with, we decided to look at a iconic photograph of Lincoln, split it into six shapes then go away and interpret the photo in our own way, such as a painting or collage perhaps.

New Beginnning...Fine Art

This year I realised that my passion for art was not being depicted through my graphics. So I wanted to start fresh by transferring my course at university from Graphic Design to Fine Art. Here I start fresh and make a change to my learning and understanding of Fine Arts.
Here I go again!

Experimenting with the letter 'M' in CaslonPro!

 

For my poster brief I had to experiment with my given letter 'M' in the typeface Caslon Pro.
It was very exciting and I loved experimenting and coming out with these outcomes!

My poster for St.Brides library typeface exhibition!

This is my final poster design for St.Brides library of a Caslon Pro typeface exhibition.

I felt this brief went by very quickly but I liked my concept behind my design. looking back at it now I could make a few amendments to make it look better visually.

"When in doubt, use Caslon"

Lovely quote from Caslon, I was going to use it in my poster but think it's better if I come up with one of my own.

Adobe Caslon Pro by Marius Holtman

I came across this when I researching ideas for my poster for St.Brides brief.

It is a poster to advertise Adobe Caslon pro by Marius Holtman a Graphic Designer from Norway.

I love the idea of a Caslon pro family!

Exhibition - The particle

These are photographs from an exhibition i went to in October for my contextual practice studies.

‘The particle’ by Alex Posada is an exhibition on a kinetic sculpture that reveals an illusion through light, colour, movement and sound. 

 

Visual Expression - our modernist practitioner Edward Hopper

These pics are of our sculpture we had to make based on Edward Hopper a modernist practitioner.
Edward Hopper was born in New York, he was a American painter whose works are landmarks of American realism, his paintings characterized, isolation melancholy and loneliness. 








We created our sculpture on him, based 'Time square'. We made 'Time Square' a lonely isolated place. At one side of the sculpture is Hoppers paintings and some of our quotes for his work, and on the other side is a lonely man sat on a bench that represents one of his etchings called 'night in the park'.






We decided to add fairy lights  to create an ambiance of time square.
The sculpture was hit for us!
