Photos- Light

 
     I noticed the sunlight on the water from my shower and was fascinated by how i could see the lines of water. I took photos from an upward angle, downward and straight on. Each perspective changed how the movement of the water looked looked. I was also took by how the water shined, appearing like falling diamonds.

   
I took photos of this candle as it has pressed flowers and leaves around the edge. I will press some flowers as well and use them in paintings or collages. I liked how the candle light illuminated through, it made me think about my chosen song and how her love for her crush inspired her to want to live in reality. However she lost her chance, just like how a candle can easily be blown out. I really like this metaphor and will devlop it through experiments of the visuals.

Crete: Drawings

    I took a sketchbook with me to Crete, on the plane i doodled this out of boredom. Using coloured pens i created random patterns and lines to draw out the front of a girl.

The scribbles become less and eventually turn into the colourful patterns before fading completely. I really like the idea conveyed in this drawing, however i dont like the basic cartoon style as i think it shows my lack of drawing skills. The whole piece looks like a doodle and a bit messy.

Instead of patterns it would be a strong mix of bright colours that is faded together like a light cloud. Compared to a mix of black and grey at the back with drips and harsh lines. I could also add some delicate sewing

Artist- Mara Light

       Whilst looking at Jenna Andersons art i came across the artist Mara Light. Lights work Focuses on young women in rough, aged appearing paintings. The artists creates beautifully detailed paintings of girls that almost look like porcelain dolls, however the painting itself looks rough and marked up with drips in her work. The contrast of perfection and a sense of neglect to the work conveys the women with the feeling of loss and abandonment. Possibly exposing how their lives are not perfect despite their appearance.       Mara Lights work really captures my attention with the texture as well as the emotions conveyed in the work through the women and their body language. They all look hopeless and lost and all have a story of their own. I have pictured myself creating some artwork with a similar style to Lights and now by using Lights work as a preference i have a chance to look at the details in the rough areas to try and recreate as well as add on extra materials for inst
