taking color taking pattern-michelle

In this section,we are telling to present our drawings in colors and patterns. So in the past few days our class vist the horniman museum and our group visit the London field. In London field we visit a market and i took some photos from the people and stuff i feel interested. On top of that i tried to do some drawings with colors and mark making, combining the things i have observed. The second place our class visit is horniman museum, I saw some very lifelike animal specimens and photos of sea creatures. In the museum garden I tried to do some observation drawings with the flowers I saw. In my spare time, I went to watch an opera performance. I was attracted by the design of the building, so I also drew some pictures of the opera house as I saw it.

These experiences directly influenced my art. The peaceful mood of the park and the strong emotions from the opera stayed in my mind. When I started to draw, I did not plan everything. Instead, I let my feelings guide my hands. I used vivid colours to show the drama of the opera and flowing, simple lines to capture the calm feeling of London Fields.

This process taught me that art may also comes from feeling rather than just thinking. By channelling my experiences directly onto the page, I can create work that is more personal and honest. I will definitely use this method again for future projects. For some of the taking patterns I wanted to throw alway the colors and just focus on the lines and shapes and see what can happen.
