Experiment Ten – depicting constrained depiction or visual indeterminacy

For my final experiment I wanted to attempt an illustration which I felt summed up what I thought an indeterminate image looks like visually as opposed to verbally. The rules were therefore to capture what I consider an indeterminate image is through the painting itself. It was about making an illustration of what I mean… Continue reading Experiment Ten – depicting constrained depiction or visual indeterminacy

Experiment Nine – combining digital & traditional

For this experiment I decided to use a range of processes gleaned from previous experiments as well as both traditional and digital drawing/painting methods. So the rule was somehow combining the processes and examine if a sufficient outcome can be made. Method – (starting point) a continual contour drawing of myself to free the movement… Continue reading Experiment Nine – combining digital & traditional

Experiment Four – water balloons & food colouring

Having drawn marks with the remote control car, which at times felt wild and unmanageable, I thought I would maintain that sense of unpredictability in this experiment, whilst attempting to have some control by using hands to throw the water balloons. So the rules were simply this – using hands to throw objects at paper… Continue reading Experiment Four – water balloons & food colouring

Experiment Two – dropping ink

This second experiment involved using the force of gravity to produce marks by dropping ink from a height and following through with spraying and blowing. Again, it was a playful way of making marks using natural forces which were out of human control and therefore the results were unpredictable. In this experiment, I also explored… Continue reading Experiment Two – dropping ink
