About My Project
"For my project I have used all my art materials as a source of inspiration and primary imagery, I use these on a daily basis to be creative and rely on them to build my creative skills so I thought they’d be a great example of ‘everyday objects’. I have experimented and developed my ideas, skills and outcomes over the course of the project and settled on a series of repeat patterns and a large scale acrylic painting as final pieces.
The series of repeat patterns have been created using a traditional method of cutting paper into four to create a repeat pattern, I then used the light-box to duplicate this to create an a3 sized outcome. I repeated this method four times drawing different art materials to make each repeat pattern individual. I used my favourite media, acrylic paint to add detail and colour to each of the repeat patterns.
Using large rolls of paper I began to outline and sketch my everyday objects on a large scale, I decided to draw the items that I used the most during my Art & Design lessons such as pencils, rubbers, sharpeners, glue and paintbrushes. Once the outline was complete I added the bright, eye-catching yellow as a background and proceeded to use my acrylic paints to add detail and colour to the individual everyday objects."
