The work I am presenting here is a variety of work from my foundation year at college. Throughout the year I have involved myself in plenty of experimentation work and have created a range of different outcomes within different projects. I have produced many different types of drawing, from life drawing, an activity which I always enjoy, to drawing in stitch. The chance drawing I have done was created by photographing some ink marks that had stained the table, photocopied the image onto acetate and projected it onto a sheet or A1 paper. I then drew around every mark and filled them in with black paint. With this piece I did not plan or chose any particular image, just simply saw some ink marks that had been created by a spillage from someone else and decided to work from them.
Other drawings I feel work very well are my blind drawings, one in pencil and one in stitch. These drawings are far from correct and accurate but they were a very exiting way of drawing, not being able to see the marks you are making, only looking at the subject.
I have also included some images of my 5 days at Rydal Hall in the Lake District, as I was working within the environment to create these pieces, only using the natural materials that surrounded me.
The last few images are from my some of my most recent projects, the Body Project and a project on Time. The audio recording is to be played while viewing the last image, the Time Project Final. These recordings are like a soundtrack to the photos, a documentation of how I spend my time in the evenings.
I am a very open minded person, always open to new ideas and experimenting with ways of working and using different materials. I feel I would be very well suited to this course as I have displayed a variety of skills and know I would have the opportunity to expend these into further works, exploring many different fields as I work through the 3 year course.
