Hello readers,
I have been at university now for a good 4 months or so and it's time to do my first blog. I have always wanted to do one but never really decided what to focus it on. Now I am studying printmaking i have been demanded to produce one and it's going to be epic! Im excited so i hope you are!
Right, the brief! Antique, Artefact or Junk? My first missions are to record and produce some drawings from my bedroom, the roadside and the V & A museum. These will be completed when i find my pencil.But let's go into a bit more detail about the brief.
Test components as “Antique, Artefact or Junk?” Explore their value; initially as a personal response but then compare your response to other opinions such as society (the general public or news media) outlawed (graffiti) or any provided display information (historical academic opinion) or intention of who made it (designer, artist, crafts person). Use this to inform and expand your thinking, Theorize and make discoveries of your own.
Reinvent the viewing perspective by representing fresh data that demonstrates an interesting visual outcome. Explore and develop your own visual sense by comparing what you are doing in reference to other appropriate art practitioner's work. Develop confidence by understanding how these visuals work.
This pathway is designed to use printmaking as an element and tool that initiates imaginative discovery along your creative journey.
I have used printmaking before at A level and foundation. I was pretty handy at a bit of lino but then went on to develop my etching skills. I thrived on etching as it related to my pen and ink style a lot. I'm quite a line loving person. So my previous skills and knowledge should help me get started in this pathway. I am looking forward to screen-printing, as I have always wanted to learn this type of print and produce my own clothes as well. We did have a talk in the first semester about making books with printmaking, I may explore this too.
Lets do this......
