To apply this connection to my own subject matter, a clear symbol arose. One of the only clear memories I have of my childhood trip to see the white horses is having to wear crocs inside the BnB with my Dad. I think the strangeness of it is key to its' longevity in my memory. Every other memory that surrounds this moment is muddled, and I am not even sure about this moment either - my Dad doesn't remember it. 

I tried to communicate this randomness through this drawing. Its' strangeness brings me joy too, so I wanted to use colour to suggest this emotion, while also focusing on the personal and specific. ]]> 2022-11-24 21:23:52 UTC https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2397223074 emilydavies2499 https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2397223615 2022-11-24 21:25:10 UTC https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2397223615 emilydavies2499 https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2401344297 I found this exercise useful in picking out key themes and ideas that linked my work. Often this wasn't what I expected it to be, and made me re-analyse what I am interested in and why I am doing the work I am doing.

I am also keen on matching my 'working out' with my collective themes aesthetically, and think it is valuable to rework these sheets to achieve this. Once I took home my workshop outcomes, I outlined the collaged sections with black pen to make the connections clearer, and to form the visual of an underground rabbit warren of ideas. The result is hugely improved, creating a flowing yet defined mapping.]]> 2022-11-29 04:51:04 UTC https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2401344297 emilydavies2499 https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2401356352 2022-11-29 05:04:11 UTC https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2401356352 emilydavies2499 https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2404231418 2022-11-30 21:18:49 UTC https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2404231418 emilydavies2499 https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2404232288 2022-11-30 21:19:53 UTC https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2404232288 emilydavies2499 https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2430770672 After looking at some of --- work with Matt in our paired tutorials, I was inspired to treat my working out with more certainty, and celebrate the visual connections made when 'scribbling' or 'doodling'.

I scanned in my sketchbook and simply selected some sections to create contrast. This kind of graphic sensibility transforms what felt messy into a more beautiful, flowing page of visual thinking. ]]> 2022-12-30 20:23:01 UTC https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2430770672 emilydavies2499 https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2430770896 This image was created using the 'Difference' layer effect on Photoshop. The deep blues and mustard oranges remind me of rusting steel.

In the case of these sketches, I was working out the angle I wanted to draw a younger version of myself, looking purely at silhouette and simple lines. 
The marks below are the ghost prints of foam sections I used to create colour in a workshop relief print. Together, these elements create a liminal, textured page which tells the story of my thinking and practical making without a need for text.]]> 2022-12-30 20:26:32 UTC https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2430771264 emilydavies2499 https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2430771641 I focused on one section here; this was the most dynamic of all the sketches, and the angle works well, looking down on her as she stares away. 

On photoshop, I enjoy testing out different layer effects. This specific example was achieved by using the 'Subtract' effect.

It reminded me of soil and fossils, the white lines mimicking the delicate lines of ammonites or sand. I actually think this is a great way of illustrating buried objects, which I may want to utilise in the future when thinking about archeology in a practical sense.]]> 2022-12-30 20:28:23 UTC https://padlet.com/emilydavies2499/864qemmootx6pesu/wish/2430771641
