Rationale For my extended practice module I want to produce a body of work I am happy with and enjoyed making. I hope to explore some new styles and challenge myself whilst making lots of work. I also want to develop my personal visual signature and end up with a portfolio of work that I feel shows my interests and personality through an array of different styles and finished pieces. I want to experiment with digital work for the first time and hope to produce some work that is mainly digital, whilst also developing my drawing and painting skills.
Themes / Subjects Some themes I am thinking of exploring are: Autism Fan Art Music Illustration
Products / Methods of Distribution I hope to produce a series of prints for my autism project. I will also hopefully produce a couple of fan art posters as a smaller side project. If they are good enough perhaps I could sell them on etsy or something.
Practical Skills / Media / Formats As I have stated already, id like to try have a go at some digital work and produce a lot of my work digitally for this module as I have previously been too scared of digital software like Photoshop as I haven’t been taught how to use it and never had access to such software before. As well as this, I hope to further develop my drawing skills as well as my painting skills. I would also like to experiment with collage, either physical or digital.
