TEXTILES Week 8

Textiles Week

We've finally finished exploratory stage and this is a few of the pieces from textiles. We spent a lot of time doing experimental drawing and working with mixed media. Collage, inks, paints etc. In some ways very similar to Illustration.



This was one of my favourite ones. I really liked the idea of painting the negative space then turning the paper upside down to make it a background. It worked really nicely! I think would definitely be a technique I would consider doing again. 


This is another one we did. We were encouraged to work on two at once to create a pair. I really like the colours on this one more so than the first one. The mix of warm and cool colours makes a nice contrast. As a pair I think these looks really nice, but looking at them separately I struggle to like them. 


This was one of the first things we did, drawing different objects in different materials overlapping eachother. I quite like this one in particular.
