My Final Body of Work

Gloss on Netting- 60 X 50 X 20 Cm

This week I have also been looking that the artist Karla Black who uses material and everyday objects to create these really interesting sculptures, I find them interesting because of their simplicity and they look really elegant as well. As my paintings I did last week are just on material I thought that I might as well have a go at controlling the use of line and shape by taking it back to how the painting began with the folding. I have just taken some of the visible creases and refolded them while they are fixed to the wall. It creates a really pleasing effect and I really like the way it comes off the wall, it takes it back to the uncontrolled process, but with the lines painted on it balances out.

I really liked this idea and thought that it worked really well with my project and I think that if I present these pieces for assessment I will present them like this. However this week I have created two more canvas' that are very large as a pair in the same way that I have been starting all my work with the folding process. I'm have to stuck to colours that will complement each other but have one light canvas and one dark so when they are sat next to each other they should balance against each other.

After I got to the point where the paint was ready to be controlled I stepped back from them and looked at them as a pair and I decided that the lines wouldn't really bring what I wanted them to bring to it and I looked back at my research into Dadaism and Fauvism and decided that the way that I was going to get it looking like how I want it to look is if I just added in small patched of colour in areas where it need to be controlled with a brush.

 I started to do this and it all started to fall into place how I wanted it and when they are placed together they balance each other out.
