The aim of this project was to get a better understanding of colour. Each student had to choose 2 contrasting words at random, I choose muted and bright. I had to look for colour stories that communicated each word and extract colours from each picture using as much different media as possible eg. markers, paper, make-up etc.After exploring each word through colour I had to mix the different themes and come up with 2 new colour stories.
Muted
Tearing cotton wool, cord and sugar paper to create soft muted tones. |
Tracing paper gives the page a muted look. |
Using an old holiday photo as a colour story. Here I choose organza for a delicate feel. |
Different media creates an interesting version of this colour story. |
Magazine pulls, fabrics and paper. |
Bright
I chooses acid brights. |
Extracting colours from magazine pulls. |
Using old shopping bags for colour stories. |
Looking at how artist/ photographer David LaChapelle uses colour. |
Yayoi Kusama colourful work. |
