Big painting adding the structure

Experiments Second Year Third TermJune 3, 2019

Exciting to imagine the sculpture on the painting. Three stage of translating the sculpture onto the projector. I was about to begin drawing the sculpture free hand on the acetate but then I realised why am I not just printing the image and tracing it? I did this and it worked like a dream! It […]

Big canvas painting process

Experiments Second Year Third TermJune 2, 2019

This is the first big painting of this term, but my process and scale etc is all built on what I was doing the term before. There are however a few changes I made to the painting process for this piece which has changed because of feedback I have had on previous paintings, and the […]

Second Paper Mache Sculpture Process

Experiments Second Year Third TermJune 2, 2019

I was writing in my sketchbook that I wanted this final sculpture of the term to be geometric. But when I sketched ideas out in my sketchbook I realised that fan faults are the most iconic Cathedral architectural feature, so this is a shape I need to explore! This shape is both simple and intricate […]

Using a projector in the painting process

Experiments Second Year Third TermMay 30, 2019June 3, 2019

Why haven’t I done this before!? I was home one evening talking about my work and I was reminded of using a projector to project shapes onto the canvas to get proportions right etc. SO I found an overhead projector – I chose this instead of a digital one because I can still hand draw […]

Second experiment drawing sculpture into a painting

Experiments Second Year Third TermMay 30, 2019

First of all I did a series of sketches in my sketchbook, this was the most successful and so I wanted a sketch like this but more refined on the painting. Turns out it is a lot harder to paint this shape onto the painting than I expected!! Problems with the process of this experiment: […]

Photoshopping structures into a painting

Experiments Second Year Third TermMay 30, 2019

I thought it would be useful to see how the sculpture will look in the painting, giving me an idea of how a drawing would look in real life. The right hand angle looks way better, the angle on the right makes the shape look flat and not dimensional. I discovered this in my sketchbook […]

Sculpture drawing at an angle

Experiments Second Year Third TermMay 29, 2019

This went terribly!!! I did no practice, I just started on the paper – turns out that was not a good idea! I first mapped out only the lines, following the pattern I made when drawing the sculpture straight on. But the shape didn’t make any sense. So i blocked in the white to see […]

Paint thickness and next drawing sculpture experiment

Experiments Second Year Third TermMay 29, 2019

Location I painted outside just now to prepare the page for the sculpture test drawing I’m going to put on top. This was the first painting in this style I have done in what seems like a while! This is not really true, but compared to last term I have been doing less painting outside. […]

Drawing the paper mache sculpture

Experiments Second Year Third Term UncategorizedMay 28, 2019

Detailed drawing. Transferring dimensions back onto paper. I then traced this drawing with clean newspaper paper, and cut around it so I had a template for the next drawing. I reduced the detailed painting down to lines. It’s interesting how this drawing is so different from the original design for the sculpture below. The new […]

Wire and Paper Mache Sculpture (#3)

Experiments Second Year Third TermMay 28, 2019

After a tutorial about my work I wanted to try out paper mache. It sounded like it had the potential to be a lot finer and more delicate than clay, and also much stronger than clay and not subject to cracking. I designed the shape being far more precise than I have made designs in […]
