Urban Influences Week Three

Over this week I continued with drawing and sketchbook work aswell as this I began some initial experimental samples from my visual research. I concentrated on working with linier forms and circular shapes as this was something I found to be present in both my drawing and photographs.

I dont feel my initial samples wer sucessful for a variety of reasons the colour pallete wasnt't right I feel the red with the blue is confusing so there is no focal point to the sample aswell as this the composition is unsuccessful the sample is compleately layerd however I do think that using layering within my samples could be sucessful in portaying my visual research and the theme of urban i plan to experiment with layering in further samples using it to build up textures and areas leaving other spaces clear and simple an idea i looked at in previous weeks.

During this weeks tutorial we discused my samples and visual develpoment and I explained how and why My sample wer'nt successful aswell as the colour and compositon the sampleas were too small as was my sketchbook. We discussed how I was getting hung up on presentation and "being too careful" which is something that I challenged on the tram task with my concertina books. Lyne said it would be a good idea to create some more books and quick sketches and so i plan to move into a larger sketchbook in which to be more experiment in. I also plan to look back through my photographs and develop more samples. Aswell as this Lyne asked me why I chose to have a small A4 sketchbook and so i chose to go bigger I took the risk and moved into an A3 sketchbbok.
