For the Between The Lines project (project 2), I initially wanted to screen print my final designs, but that did not turn out too well, see previous screenprinting post here. HOWEVER! I did not give up and I went back into the print room to re-do this process and see what kind of results I … More A day of screen printing
After my tutorial/crit, which I spoke about in a previous post here, I had a few further things to improve on. I have since then managed to create the series of illustrations into 3D objects. This has been a good outcome as I have found that it is great to be able to hold my … More Between The Lines – Further Outcomes
A final crit for end of project two. I was delighted with my outcome, and the way it was presented. In the crit I explained my work and final outcome throughout the development of my project. The feedback I got was good, with some further updates to the project towards final submission, I am in … More Between The Lines – Outcome
Today was not my day for screen printing. I had been trying to do screen print for 2 weeks, and finally the room was free to use. I had images prepared, clean screens and a whole day in which to make some prints. The light sensitive emulsion went onto the screen. It dried. I exposed my … More Screenprinting failure
A very productive day in the Letterpress room! From my previous post of how the title has changed of this project, I had prepared my typographical title page/box front for this project. Going from a digital approach back to an analogue (handmade) development is something I do from time to time. Using digital platforms, like Photoshop … More Between The Lines – Letterpress
As I have found a way through the workshops, the development, the sketches and designs, I thought it to be in my best interest to see if their are any artists out there that have a similar design based on what I have come up with. As our final deliverable is to be a series … More Liverpool Street Station Art Research
Ricardo took the class for a trip down Adobe Illustrator. Many, many, many things were learnt on this workshop. I am not one to use illustrator, at all really, only to get the odd vector design if I need one. However, with Ricardo’s patience and structured lecture, he was able to give me a great … More Laser Cut Prep Workshop
My new found beauty from a my previous derive, which inspired me to do these abstract line illustrations to communicate my experience of Liverpool Street Station, has now inspired me to take a typographical approach too! For a final deliverable outcome, I am aiming towards creating 6 prints which are displayed inside a box (subject … More Between the Lines
After the lecture on Elements of Design and finding beauty in our locations, with Ricardo, I chose to look more specifically at the architecture of Liverpool Street Station. I took notice at the roof structure of the station, due to the complexity and simplicity of the structure. Straight beams intersecting with each other supporting a … More Finding Beauty
Workshop by Ricardo, gave me some even deeper innovations to work on my studio derive project. Ricardo provided us a mini lecture on the elements of design. Something I think artists and designers look past when creating, but use all the time without realising. Taking these new realisations into account, selecting at least two elements, … More Screenprint Prep Workshop
