Art experiments from college


These are a few different pieces of artwork that I created and experimented with whilst at college, I created many paintings, altered photographs, created portraits, used photo editing programs and created some sculptures as I have shown down below, I used a series of different materials to create my work such as watercolor  acrylic paints and various materials that I could find, for example waste materials, Bamboo, string etc.

Mixed Media On Canvas
30" x 40"

This was my final project that i worked on at college, it was based around each day being different so i used a large range of different materials and techniques such as stipple, collage, ink, painting accurately, painting in an abstract manner, corrugated card and pattern. I felt this was a great success.

Overall I felt that some of these art pieces turned out to be quite effective. Most of them were personal experiments which I enjoyed working with.
