So whats left to do?

So far during my FMP I have created mood boards, visual sheets and made a start on my sketchbook and experimentation, but what else have I got left to do?

My sketchbook needs work, a lot of work and I am currently working on my first develepment sheet and hopefully when I go back to college on Monday I will only have little bits and bobs to do on my second development sheet. When I get back I will make a start on my tracing, buy fabrics and start to dye them up ready for when my screen is ready and finished.

In my spare time whilst i'm not at college I will work on my sketchbook at home and work on creating two possibly three artist research sheets.

Visual Sheets

From my mood boards I have now produce two visual sheets which consist of dream symbols and inspiration took from photos on my mood boards.
All of these sheets have been painted with gouache paints and I will now produce my development sheets from these.



Needle Felting

Over the Easter holidays I took home a variety of things to do and keep me occupied, I have taken some needle felting things home and I have created this sun and moon.

This is what it looked like in mid process.



There is still work to be done on it and I post a picture of the finished product when finished soon!

Mood Boards

Here are my two mood boards that I have produced with images found of the internet that relate well with my FMP, in these two mood boards I have used certain subjects like: mythology, fantasy, nightmare art, tarot cards, Tibetan art (the clouds) and a dream symbol sheet to show what the most seen things are that people visualize in dreams and nightmares.
From this dream symbol sheet and my mood boards I will produce visual sheets.

Getting Creative

On my day off from college I decided to make these cute little potion bottles that I think fit perfectly with my FMP ideas, I will be giving them weird and wacky names as they are supposed to be potions. I would like to put them in with my exhibition and hopefully sell them with the rest of my work that I will be displaying/selling. If my textiles tutor likes the idea of these I will produce more over the Easter holidays.
