Module One Chapter One - Transfer Painting

After a lot of hard work yesterday I am finally able to upload the pages from my sketchbook on the work I've been doing on transfer painting. (If you click on the images you should be able to get larger images if you want to read my ramblings on the page).



It feels like it's been a huge amount of work to get all of this done, and I've spent a lot of time experimenting with the technique. Not everything has been successful but it's all in the book regardless of whether I like the results or not.

I have to say I'm really happy that I managed to find some satin fabric as I feel a lot happier about my results with the technique and am a point where I'm now happy to move on.

I'm about 2 weeks behind the little timetable that I set for myself, but I didn't realise how involved in this first chapter I would get. There are still so many more things that I could have done, both for my colour and image work and the transfer painting. But there does come a point where you have to draw the line and mark it as done, and I'm happy enough with the work I've done for this first chapter to say that point is now.

On to Chapter Two.....

Module One Chapter One - Collecting Colour and Image

This is my submission for the first part of Module one, Chapter One of the course. These are images of my sketchbook pages. I don't think there is really too much for me to say as hopefully it is all on the pages for you to read.











I haven't quite managed to complete my self imposed task of finding triangles in nature so there is space for another image or two if I can find them!



These pages in my sketchbook have been left blank for now. Part of what I have to do in the future is have a look at the art of Monet and make some notes. So I have left this pages free as a space to add some images and thoughts as they come to me.
These last two pages weren't a requirement as such, I've done them more for my own interest and entertainment than anything else, just a few thoughts that have occurred to me on what I've done so far.
