Graphics - Day 3

I had to produce a design piece that would be communicating for my own exhibition that happens in 2033. 

I made 10 designs in my sketchbook, and I chose one to develop as my final piece. However, I left it to the actual day to decide on what I was going to do. I’m very disappointed how I didn’t use my time wisely, so I would have brought the right materials I need with me for the day. I ended up spending most of the time testing out colours and materials, which I should have done in advance. 

 I produced a poster, where I made a model table and shelf using plain paper. In the future, I would want to be doing something in relations to interior, so I thought of drawing elements in an interior. However, to make the idea more creative, I came up with the idea of making mini furniture’s and stick it on to the poster than to just plainly draw the objects. 

I thought I didn’t execute the work well. I overdid with the colours. I thought it was too plain to have a white background, so I changed it to a colour background. However, it actually did look much better with a white background. I did not felt my work was finish, so I added lots of different colour oil pastels, however it just looks like too much is going on. If I was to redo the work I would strip down on the use of colours, and probably a different choice of medium, like watercolours or felt tips. I manage to finish on time, but I still wasn’t happy with the way the work turned out. 

I took on board on other peoples work, how simple and little they did but work so effective visually. A peer made a book which I thought was a very good idea and different compare to everyone else. I also notice looking at other people’s work that they named their exhibition and given dates and times. These are the things that I should consider adding the next time I do something similar to this task.
