Studio Work
I decided to be more daring with my studio work and expand on scale, I have created a large 8ftx4ft version of my masking tape pieces. I made it on a black background as I thought that the dark background would help to make the colours pop. However, after I completed the piece I decided that the black did the opposite, instead of making the colours on the masking tape appear brighter it made the whole piece appear darker. My tutors also pointed out that because there was so much going on within the piece the painted detail on the masking tape had become lost and we can no longer appreciate it for these qualities. Another tutor also said that it has become flat and needs something else to help add depth to it. I agreed and decided to move on from this piece taking away what I had learnt from it.
