The past two weeks I have spent creating a double cloth warp in preparation to weave. I have learnt that more time and pacients is need to create such a cloth and I shall not be doing it again. If I could I would use my two warps separtately. I always try to push myself to do something a bit different, but in future I want to keep my ideas simple.
My drawing has developped well and I have had some interesting outcome, but I now need to push these further before I apply them to my cloth. After introducing a new techniques of drawing I have refreshed my drawing skills and provocted some interesting outcomes. I have also researched the liked of Monet and Turner as well as Pointilist for inspiration. I love the dashes and splodges used to build up the layers of colour. I love the way certain colours stand bold and how texture is created. I have enjoyed working with acrylic paint and gaouche due to the colours I can create and how layer upon layer can be added with out effecting the paper unlike watercolours.
