For the task, of getting inspired in London, I am extremely new in London and UK for both, so I would hesitate to explore London than choose to visit big places such as markets, galleries, and museums, therefore I could have a chance to explore brand-new thoughts and perspective on an object. Consequently, I visited Tate Modern, there was one artwork that caught my eye, it is painted by Judy Watson, memory scar, grevillea, mangrove pod (& net), 2020. I liked the rough colour and the unexpected lines. I tried to use different media which are charcoal, posca pen, and watercolour. I want it to have irregular shapes and lines to depict unlimited movement. Then, I draw random lines using charcoal first. I chose charcoal, charcoal is a good element to create an unexpected result, and the texture itself and I add some colour that can imply a powerful and energetic feeling towards to audience. Still, I thought it is a bit dull and too strong. Consequently, I add contrast colours which are dark blue and deep cyan, then I let them spread and mix with the colour already on. Thus, colours are blended without losing the original colour. After it dried, it looks a bit compacted, so I add some white lines to the seemingly emerging space in the colour. However, I liked it but I could challenge with more wide range of colour rather than using few colour to express the feeling of the drawing that it can imply, and try more various method.
