When it comes to the “way of seeing” I decided to look onto different types of fruits and the skins that cover then. I went to a little market in Brixton and collected the images i wanted to use. The materials that I used the most was watercolour as I was able blend each of the pigments together to create the outcome that I was intending on. I like the fact that you can’t tell straight away what the image is until you see the larger image. This is a way of working that I enjoyed doing as it has taught me that even from a far or even close, I’m able to create the same image but with a different outcome. However, as a whole I have really enjoyed this as I was more in my comfort zone, and it has taught me not to be so scared for the final outcome I will definitely be using this method again.

When it comes to the “Talking colour” i walked around London and other places around my home town (Bedfordshire) and started to draw things that i liked and inspired me. I was able to use a wide range materials from wet and dry ones such as; watercolours, pro-markers, collage and coloured inks too. I found loads of things that inspired me which I was quite surprised about, one of the things that I enjoyed the most was looking into the pattern of the fish scales as I was able to create this with loads of materials and fabrics too. With this task I found that I was a little out of my comfort zone as I’ve not done much work on the go doing a quick drawing on the go. By working like this it has taught me that this is something that I would like to try and explore a little further.
