Georgia Lenchner- ‘Way of seeing’
This is my second task of Inrto 2 ‘Way of Seeing’. Whilst completing each art piece, I constantly had in mind the aim of this task, to be completely experimental and learn what ideas worked and to take them forward as a creative. Playing around with more mediums and different materials, meant I was engaging with capturing structure, texture, pattern and colour.
After analysing my art from task 1, I wanted to improve on using materials and different kinds of paper and techniques to create my outcomes. When I had completed majority of my art, I instantly noticed a difference. As using materials and different coloured paper made my work stand out to the eye.
Normally I love to work with the medium watercolour, to blend and bring colour and texture to my work. However, I used acrylic on black paper and began to become fond of the medium. I was painting textural leaves onto the black paper and loved that acrylic can be built up, on top of numerous other colours.
Another technique that I found enjoyable was ripping colours out of a magazine, to build texture and colour to create an image. I used a primary image of a sunrise and replicated it by building magazine colours and textures together.

Once again I enjoy your use of colour and line, you have successfully shown texture which creates very interesting pieces that are not only eye-catching but also detailed. It appears you have deconstructed what is around you and created snapshots which are effective and could be used to create a print. I particularly like your magazine collage as I like the fact it isn’t exactly clear what it is, but it still creates an exciting piece. It is clear that you are pushing each design and that you are learning what works and what doesn’t suggesting that this task was very useful to you.
