I like using different mediums. I have decided to work on a canvas and go down the 'ink blot/ Rorschach' route because I think the designs you can come out with are crazy! its mesmerising and you can just keep looking at the different shape and the flow of the lines and see different images.

I decided to use acrylic paint (black, violet,). I started with this as a 'base' adding the violet in as an 'accent' so its broken up more and there's more going on. More to look at. More to think about. You can sink in to it. Lose yourself.

Once I was happy with this I decided to make it pop more by using a varnish liquid which makes things have a shiny almost pearlescent look to it. I used this on some of the main black bits. I also used a shiny impasto medium paste to give it a silver sheen in some areas. You really can't focus on one spot at a time.

I also used drawing ink to neaten up my lines and add splats which adds texture and depth in to the whole piece. I like my own unique take on a Rorschach image.

I tried to make each side match up but I had limited time and I like how slightly uneven it is. It is a little messy buy I think that makes it what it is. I like the size of the canvas it gave me enough space to work with and to be able to use large shapes and make it not look all mushed together. I also used glow in the dark paint which makes certain areas which I painted with it glow in the dark. I put a few layers on so it appears more intense in the dark.

I do wish I had planned this better but it was a really short project and I stuck to deadlines and did work following up to my final piece.

I like how you can make out multiple images within the whole design. That's the point of these rorschach images.

I painted the whole thing mindfully. I only thought about painting and making it flow. Enjoying doing it and focusing only on the artwork.

You can look at the piece in a mindful way also because you can see different things and try work out what it's meant to be... even though it's not actually anything... It's whatever you want it to be. Anything and everything. Nothing and something. Peace.

Attempted write out a reed quote but I didn't think about how much space I had. Didn't work. So next time I need to think about position and letter size.

I want to be able to create a piece which conveys a word without even having to say it. It may well include the word but i want you to be able to feel it before you see it. I was looking at the words Open and Mindful but i wanted to focus more on the growth mindset rather than the British values. This is because i believe that we are forever learning and growing as people. We are human.
