I am not sure why I like using brown paper to make art. I think it might be because I have always used white paper, but with brown, it gives you a different base to work with, as if the paper starts the work off for you.
I am aware that we are coming to the end of this brief but I am still struggling to work without a final piece in mind; however, I am enjoying just making works and responding to them as I go.
The idea for using potatoes came when I was thinking about the idea of repetition and copying. I was surprised at how the potato stamp came out, there was a small about of bleeding because the potato held moisture but I didn’t mind the effect it had on the painting.
