Module 2 Introduction

Module 2 - at last.

I am delighted to be starting Module 2! The first module took far too long - 10 months - and I am going to try and complete this module by the end of April. I do seem to be able to get more work done over the winter months - I'm not sure why.

This module uses animal markings as the inspiration, and no colour, just black and white throughout. It looks really exciting. Collecting visual information is the first step. I focussed in on the markings rather than show the entire animal. Very interesting how similar some of them look despite being from different animals.

Having printed everything out in colour, I printed everything again in black and white, which makes the similarities even more marked.

The next task is to write a list of descriptive words, and then make a series of marks relating to the list. I chose butterfly and tiger, because they are so different. I'm not a word person, and I kept adding to my list over a few days, and I also don't find it particularly easy to translate words into marks, but I am reasonably pleased with the lists and the marks.
