Reflection

As for “talking colour”, first of all, I went to several places in London with my team members to explore, such as markets and some shops. I brought a lot of painting tools, such as pencils, watercolors, crayons and propylene. I wanted to record the things that inspired me when I saw them. For example, I chose to use pencils to quickly depict the people I painted, Because they move very quickly. However, I took photos of some items displayed in the market, such as fruit stalls and various vegetables, and then I went home to depict them carefully. This is why there are different styles in my paintings. In the process of detailed painting, I choose to combine different kinds of painting media. I think that the works drawn by combining various media are rich. For example, when I paint flowers, I use crayons to paint large areas of color, but use fine watercolors to depict details. This is a good painting method I learned in this task. But at the same time, I also realized my own shortcomings. Some of my works are seriously divided into two levels, too loose or too detailed. Maybe the combination of the two will have a better effect. Through this task, I think I can add some new media to my paintings in the future, such as colored paper. I also learn to extract more shapes, and use software to do some new designs. In short, I like this project very much. I learned to draw inspiration from others and develop printing through painting.
