Okay so here goes the start of uploading my best works! For me it was hard choosing my favourites but I have finally chosen them! I will be uploading them in a series of posts!

| Untitled Piece This piece I did as a part of my Course project- 'Traces' (which I have spoken of in prior blog posts) is a rubbing of a Goat skull and Ram horns. To create it, I first got an A3 sheet of cartridge paper and began rubbing the skull, once I was happy that I had covered most of the area of the skull and got as many of the marks in as possible, I got a different horn from the selection (I picked the horn which had the most marks and texture, and also the largest) and then put the paper in the correct position and made sure to get as much texture as I could and once I had done both horns I fixed it so it wouldn't smudge. The idea was given to me by my Lecturer and out of the many different rubbings I did this one stood out the most. I feel the marks and texture work really well, and it looks dark and atmospheric. It looks like a Rorschach Test which I find interesting. It's one of my favourite pieces because it has a dark beauty, it's creepy and sinister, and the abstract look of the skull really adds to the overall look of the piece. I feel that this piece holds some of my thoughts in it also, I was having a bad day when I did it, and I feel it holds and represents the emotions that I was going through, which were anger, sadness and hate. |
