ILLUSTRATED SELF- ACTION PLAN

Been thinking lots about which processes have been really important to me over the past year and which have positively implicated my work. I narrowed it down to six steps:

  • BLIND DRAWING
  • SHAPE COLLAGE
  • SCREEN PRINTING
  • PAINTING
  • MONO PRINTING
  • WOODCUT
When thinking about what to draw in repetition I instantly thought about self portraits however I've done this and I don't want to keep falling back on the same thing. Looking at my diagram I think it's really obvious that I enjoy fashion, architecture, art and general design from the modernist movement so started playing around with plants, housing and the modernist sculpture forms I was drawn to at Yorkishire Sculpture Park. I think the shapes I came up with actually really depict my cultural interests which is a nice over arching theme to work with. I like this aesthetic. 



Colour Palettes are also really important to my process and I really enjoy this development, it helps create a mood for my work. As this poster is all about playfulness and fun I thought bold primary colours are really important to bring an element of nostalgia to my work. 


I think now I just need to get playing around with these forms in the six processes discussed. Excited for this
