Week 12 - session 12, derwent and swansea open piece planning

 Continuing to design final pieces for derwent and Swansea open.


This week I did a multitude of different ideas for my derwent prize and Swansea open final peices, on childhood. 

I've been really considering adding together multiple photos of me and my sister together, (drawing) and then layering them slightly. I want to use penicl medium for both as thats my specialism and strong suit, as I want to do an Illustration degree in the future and then a possible MA or degree in Fine art afterwards. 

I did some small sketches, looked at mt primary sources that ive gathered, referencing them, of me and my little sister. I wrote some medias that I could use and some ideas that were floating around my head as well as some that were sitting in my head as well. 

I then reviewed my ideas and continued creating, looking at my primary sources and really thinking about the designs of what im planning to create for the derwent prize and the Swansea open. 

That was it for this week, I think it went pretty well and that I came up with a good amount of ideas and things that I could possibly do for the Dewent prize and the Swansea open as well too.

Week 13 - Cancelled so INDEPENDENT RESEARCH TRIP TO CARDIFF

Image
 Unfortunately this week and session was cancelled. However I took this time and independently researched into my theme, and went on a trip to Cardiff instead, and took lots of primary sources as Cardiff was a huge part of mine and my sisters childhood, it was so nostalgic, and I took so many photos for primary research etc. I really looked around and as I did, I remembered so many good memories too, taking this independent trip to Cardiff city really helped inspire and inform my current and latest project with more primary sources for childhood and Nostalgia. Here are some of the pictures I took of Cardiff city, and It was so Nostalgic.  I really enjoyed this independent research trip that I went on, I found it very helpful to my project for childhood, as me and my sister would be in cardiff so much in the past when we were small to big kids. I gathered so many nice and lovely photos, of buildings, the trains, Cardiff shopping centre and Cardiff city, I really enjoyed this tr...

Image
Week 4, The starting and everything that i have done so far on my EPQ.  In week 1 i did many mind-maps, exploring what i could do for my EPQ theme, i did research into different pathways and areas that i could explore for my EPQ, i thought of a range of different things and ideas making sure that i am positive and decided in what i will be doing.  For the second week of my EPQ journey, i began yet more mind-maps and mood-boards, making sure that i can really portray all of my ideas down on to paper, noting it down. i filled the pieces of A3 paper really heavily, making sure to use as much paper as needed / possible as well as getting any ideas i could thinking of at the time down and noted.  On week 3, i took part in a lesson where we covered the entire classroom floor in paper, and some lied down while some did the drawing on the floor, week 3 was inspired by Tony Orrico, we tried his way / technique of drawing, where you lie on the ground and wave your arms around and d...
