Mounting my images!

I started off with 8 images and played around with the layout, i didn't measure them out because i was just trying to figure out how i wanted them...

The idea was that i would have a fork then full meals that were collaged then a knife and the three on another piece of mount board, the teeth then the two snacks. BUT i didn't like the knife and fork, i thought they made it look cheesy? or just not right to me... i wanted to go back to the idea of these being landscapes in a way and decided to play around with them more!

I liked these images but i changed them around, i liked that the line follows through the middle. What i liked about it was that you can flip it around and it works from all angles so i decided to move the middle image to the outside and i changed the teeth image for one of the melon.

I liked the dark and light contrast on each side so that you can see it from different angles and that contrast will always be there. I will need to mount these tomorrow as i only have one mount board.

I did mount these other ones after i decided i liked the image, again i liked the line following through the middle.

Alice Potter

. Digital Media . Illustration . Surface Pattern . Alice Potter I decided to start my research with Alice Potter. I was interested in Alice Potter's work because it is very different to what i usually look at. Potter is a London based freelance illustrator and children's wear print designer. Design is something i am not sure i have an eye for, i do appreciate it but i don't tend to find myself attracted to it, or give it as much thought as i probably should. http://alicepotter.co.uk https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/AlicePotter I love the colours in this one above, i like how simple it is, but it still translates as an apple. I like the dot print i think it adds a kind of sweetness to the design as well as add something to the flatness of it. I really like these, i love how happy they look because of the use of colour. Potter draws her work out in her sketch book and then moves onto illustrator where she uses the pen ...

Photography : Rommert Boonstra & Laurie Simmons

For photography i wanted to look at artists who use models or staged worlds for their photography because its not something i looked into previous years. From moodel i came across Rommert Boonstra. He is a photographer, poet and theater director. He also taught photography at several art academies.He is well known for his Staged photography and he has Four books are published about his photo works. He uses everyday objects to create these worlds... I am pretty taken aback with these photographs and i am surprised there is not a lot about these images online. The only words i can find to describe them is other worldly. They look like completely different words, like something you would find in science fiction comic. They are just amazing. What i liked about these is the way he has used light and shadows to create the illusion of above and below, in the first 2. He has also used composition and perspective to make you feel like you are inside the world its self. I like...

Cubism Phases

Cubism is one of the most influential art movements. It was created by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braques between 1907 - 1914. It Was hugely inspired by the works on Cezanne and was the idea that images could be created that showed multiple view points and by breaking down an object back to there geometric parts. Cubism had two distinctive phases, the first being... The A nalytical Phase: (1907-12) The name Analytical suggests analysis, the close examination of a subjects in order to create flat shapes, lines and angles and overlapping planes. An example of this is : Georges Braque Bottle and Fishes circa 1910-2 Oil on canvas The painting above is by Georges Braque . He was a French Painter and one of the creators of Cubism. This painting is of a bottle, fish and plate on a table with a drawer. It looks very busy, fractured and broken. I know that Analytical cubism used a small range of dark colours like blacks, blues and greys...
