This is my Initial research and gathering when choosing my topic and narrowing it down to Glasgow specifically nightlife. I began to collect photographs that relate to Glasgow and places which I’d go or pass when going out there.

Here I began to experiment what my final would look like I looked at different types of wood and how the paint would sit on them, for these samples I picked mdf as it was the smoothest. I used a white base coat to prime the wood and then I used a bright acrylic colour as my background because a lot of the artists I have researched are very good with bright colours and using the space well, I did prefer my coloured background samples, as it looks better with any dead space in the composition.

Using a acrylic base of blue and pink for two of my samples made everything pop, however when painting over I felt that the paint began to mix a little. So for my final I used a tester pot of emulsion so it set and then I could paint with my acrylic without the colours smudging together.

Here are some edits of compositions on a photo app I used this to help me pull my work together. It mean’t I could easily rearrange compositions to see what looked best.

When looking at art I tend to gravitate towards street art. I think it’s very impressive and I like how big it is too. Some artists I’ve chosen have really worked with the area well to create optional illusion style pieces, which are really intricate and that’s what I like about them.
