Hello!!
(Did you miss me?!)
It has been an extremely busy year for me! Getting my work finished for degree show, then starting a new job... and subsequently deciding to return back to Duncan of Jordanstone to do my Masters in Fine Art starting September 2016!
I have been terrible at updating my blog, because of this I have so many photos of my degree show work throughout the year, these photos are urging to been seen so I am going to be uploading them in somewhat of a chronological order first, then I shall explain what I've been up to since degree show!

Above you can see right at the bottom of the picture my little steps as the panels were too tall for me to paint standing.
I free hand painted the entire boards using acrylic paints to achieve the vibrancy I desired.

I used a much larger pattern for the walls using less intricate detail than I put into the sculptures, in order to create different focal points for the eyes.
Here you can see the almost finished wall panels, but fully white floor panels, I chose to wait until the week we had to install our work to paint the floor (which was a lot of added pressure). I chose to do this because I wanted to lay down the floor first, and then paint the pattern directly onto the floor to create an even larger pattern.
This was when I was given access to my degree show space and first leaned my panels up against the walls, I was starting to see how my vision was coming together... and how much work I still had to do!
I will be updating again soon as I have many more photos to share!! :)
