Unmatching Jigsaw

These are the small squared I used in my last post to create the open spaces. I felt that together they created an intricate image. This has given me ideas to create more just like this using different colour palettes. 

Reply to Jackson Pollock's Autumn Rhythm

Here I used the same colour palette that Jackson Pollock used in Autumn Rhythm. The spaces of no lines are where I placed small squares of paper. I will combine the smaller pieces together to create a small image, and then convert it to a larger painting.

Soft Pastel Spherical Shapes

A repeat of my last two posts, only these were done with soft pastels on an A3 scale. I would be pleased with this if I had managed to keep my paper clean. I feel the patches of unwanted colours at the bottom of the drawing ruin the whole thing. 

Monochrome Spherical Shapes

Using the same technique as my last post, I changed my material. Instead of using water colour paints, I used charcoal. This gave the image a monochrome effect. This worked better in comparison to my other spherical shapes. I was disappointed that colours from the opposite page had rubbed off on to this drawing. 

Painted Spherical Shapes

More from my Abstraction project. I aimed to create coloured bubbles, but found that making 3D effects of sphere's worked better.

Abstracted Hand 3D

I saw something similar to this on the internet and decided to make my own. I lightly drew around my hand with a pencil, then using a ruler and a fine liner, I drew multiple lines. I arched the lines as the made contact with the outline. The result was this 3D effect of my hand.

Abstract Plate

For this my idea came from a mounted square plate on my wall. I used the same technique from my Floral Abstraction piece, and I used the shadowing on the background instead of the plate.
