what do you like about your work so far ?

Drawing is one of my favorite things, I am used to draw everyday. But always take a lot of time to finish my drawings because I do them with very meticulous strokes. This exercise was intense giving us only a few minutes to finish, but I really appreciated drawing with the continuous line, especially  when you don’t look at your page. It is the surprise of the result at the end that gives pleasure and is always amusing. 

What could be improved ?

The techniques that I am using are still very safe and I would next time to force myself to try new materials and going even more out of my comfort zone. I want to improve also my collages an work more with the negatives spaces.

What other drawing techniques could you try?

I would like to try to use ink, I feel that it could give the drawing interesting shapes if there is a thin layer of water underneath, the ink would expand and will create amazing variations of colors on the paper. Also using more 3D materials, trying to ad fabric or just folding paper to create volume.

What was successful for you and why ? 

I felt that making sculptures was successful today. It appreciated making them and creating a 3D silhouette. Playing with the meaning of the different objects that each one of us brought and exploring their symbolism, texture and shape.

What was unsuccessful today an why ? ideas of how you can improve this if you did it again ?

I wasn't satisfied with my drawings of the objects , composition and sculptures and we made. I think I need to experiment with more drawings materials and use more colors. Being a personne that enjoys taking the time to draw precisely, I need to adapt to this limited time.

How did you find working in a group situation ?

My group today was very efficient, we understood and listened to each other. Each person had an interesting point of view, and we really worked step by step as a team, finding our ideas together. And it was so good that I can't really find something  that I would improve wen I think about it.

In what did the idea of psychogeography inform your decision making in today's drawing task ?

When considering your thought progress you think it is ok to be lost ?
