printing ,mark making and building on clay
Pressing clay on the plaster slab to creat textures and using clay slabs to build vessels.
Sampling
I've been doing some patterns in clay and thinking on different ways to use this patterns . I manage to get a good amount of porcelain and stoneware samples.
Patterns and textures.
Starting preparing my textures and patterns by making plaster slabs and carve in to it
Project 4 Personal Exploration
For this project, I decided to continue exploring textures and surface patterns on Clay using my previous watercolour drawings as a reference and trace them into lino.
Since I enjoy working with hand build Clay Forms and sculptural Items I want to use this project as an experimental exercise where I explore form shapes, research techniques and colours by designing and building different Shaped Vessels inspired in Organic Forms such sea barnacles, sea weeds and corals.
Botanical marine life series
As a child I wanted to be a marine biologist. While growing up, my dreams and ambitions changed but my passion for the sea remained and that has been reflected in most of my artwork. I don't think I´m going to follow this path for much longer, but for now I want to explore it, in the best way I can. Using Ernst Haeckel old botanical drawings of seaweed, shells, coral, etc. as inspiration I´ve been creating a series of water colour drawings. I think they work really well as final product.
Multitasking....thinking of:
Porcelain inlays
repetition
Video Editing
small plates
large plates
wall plates
spoons
I have to be very honest. I really hate this pieces, I don't know why but I cant identify myself with them. I´m going to use them as colour samples and back to the drawing board. I need to rethink this project.
