Process into Image: Week 3

For week 3, we were asked to combine the techniques/methods from weeks 1 and 2 together. I wasn’t too sure where to start since all I could think was to layer one artwork and paint over it.

In the middle painting, I used a comb and created a “plaid” pattern then grabbed the blue paint bottle and spread it across using the words from week 1. I tried to create layers but the choice of colours are difficult to see the layers. I wanted to be more messy and experiment with different colour combinations, and using different layers.

On the work on the left, I used Gemma Smith’s decrease or increase technique by removing some of the paint with a paper towel. I also drew over one of the photos from week 2 over it. I outlined the bush/trees for the painting on the right. I didn’t want to recreate the painting all over again, instead of creating the waves of the sky, I used a bottle cap to act as clouds.
