Motif -ated

Back into full swing of things at Art School again...feels like I have never left.
We have began making motifs that I plan to use for printing onto materials, there is eleven different ways to organise a repeat print - completely changing the way the motif looks each time.
For this project we  have to complete (due 18th October):
  •  2 Colour Story Boards (one Autumn/Winter and one Spring/Summer).
  • 11 A3 repeat structures in full Spring/Summer colours.
  • 11 A3 repeat structures in full Autumn/Winter colours.
  • All of the above has to be spray mounted on A3 white mount board.
  • Presentation is very important
Below is the a few of the motifs that I have chosen to use for my repeat pattern ...
I took these prints and patterns from drawings that I completed for my summer project.



 








This is only a few that I have completed but it gives you an idea of the patterns and colours that I am using. 
Had an induction for the print studio -where we will be printing the our materials -I have to admit I got SOO excited to get back printing again...something I haven't done since I completed my master-class at the Glasgow Print Studio a couple years back...Cant wait!

Fishing for a dream...

Took a trip down the Feugh Falls to see the Salmon jump.

It only takes place over this time of year as the salmon attempt to swim upstream to spawn.

After seeing a few failed attempts it was quite funny yet sad to see these fish flying in the air briefly for a few seconds before bouncing off the waterfall...however for them its a matter of life or death.

Drawing in the moonlight...

“Promises are like the full moon, if they are not respected at once they diminish day by day”

Last night I was sitting at my desk drawing as I saw an arc reflecting on the conservatory roof...after looking out the window I saw the full moon shining bright...
Directly out my bedroom window the moon was shining bright creating a silhouette with the trees in the foreground.

I also then decided to take a long exposure self portrait of myself in the moonlight.

Sometimes I guess inspiration can sometimes come to you...
