What have I achieved?
I must say that I have not enjoyed doing this Project as much as I thought I would - I am chomping at the bit to get stuck in to weaving and using yarn and doing more sewing so I have really struggled to get motivated.
One of the projects I struggled with was the colour perception in Stage 2. For some reason I couldnt see the differences of colour with the complementary colours. Having said that, I have used complementary in the latest project and it has stood out to me very well the tricks your eyes play with different colours but when I was looking at the squares it didn't work for me - perhaps that is why I like working with colours of the same hue or different shades of the same colour.
I am very pleased with the drawings I did in Stage 3. I enjoyed colour matching a piece of fabric and matching the colours on the photo I have of the cotton reels. I particularly enjoyed drawing the pebbles in a jar. This seemed to come along so naturally and I have also enjoyed developing this drawing and changing the colour to black and white and then complimentary colours. I could use the drawings to develop further and I can envisage them alread being turned into fabric pieces. I also can't wait to further develop the mosaic structure that I made taking inspiration from a photograph of poppies. I can also see that being developed into a stitiched piece.
I am confident with my working method but I have to hold myself back and take it slow instead of just working on the first thing that comes into my head without taking more time on it.
