Design week 1

Last week we had the first design class with the concept artist Lawrence Marvit. 

Monday: We got the first assignment, which was to make a black/white A4 landscape consisting of 3 boxes at any size and 1 line. They all had to be at at an angle of 90 degrees and could not touch each other. The composition had to be as dynamic as possible. 

Tuesday: Was all about lines. The assignment was: Describe the taste of chocolate with lines. The description had to be based on an experience from our own life.  My direction was: Swimming in black, warm water while being hit by a cold stream.  

Wednsday: The assignment was to make an A4 landscape using the colors black, white and two tones of grey. This time we had to describe the sound of Miles Davi's album "Kind of Blue" by creating a composition of shapes. Again it had to be based on something from our own life. My direction was: Walking to my friend's house after having had a quarrel with him.


 

The last two days of the week were spent on creating a A4 landscape, again in black, white and two tones of grey using both lines and shapes. We got the theme "Circus of the Dead". This week meant a lot to me - for the first time EVER I drew a whole picture on the Wacom board. The result is of course pretty simple but the process making it was really great.
