 The font

Having experimented with 2 script fonts I have not found one that works well yet. I decided to ask for advice from Sam another student on the course. He showed me Adobe Illustrator which allowed us to manipulate the font and turn the letters into a stencil so when I laser cut the letters they remained intact.


Although I felt this was effective it was very time consuming to do the same to 16 other sentences.

So I decided to purchase a font called Lo Stamp Clean that was script in a stencil form.

Critical Studies Research with Tom

  Art vs Design Ballpoint pen and Paintbrush Art is something that I believe doesn't need a purpose to exist whereas design needs a purpose to function. The ballpoint pen on the left is designed for the purpose of writing. Whereas the paintbrush is for creating art. The brush itself did have to be designed for a function but what it's made for doesn't have a purpose, which is ok .  Calligraphy is the art of writing letters with a paintbrush whereas a ballpoint pen is also to write letters but in a simple non-artistic way. Authorship Auerbach and  Robert Stadler This drawing by Auerbach interests me due to its expressive movements and marks. It reminds me of an 80s video by the pop group Aha ‘Take on Me’. It is very expressive and lacks details in terms of accuracy. I can imagine the artist making this drawing and visualising his arm moving in my head as if I were making the drawing myself. It also has a darker side to it. I think this is because the charcoal he uses, it

Professional Practice 1-6 Talks

Professional Practice Talk Talk 1 - Tom Hackett It was really interesting how Tom took us on a journey through his work. The first thing up on the screen was his CV, which started off as a list format and then spiralled on a journey of organised chaos that he navigated us through. I found Tom's work and journey really inspiring. Like the huge hand-knitted coloured net that covered the building above. "You have to go to the world.... The world won't go to you" I really like this quote above from Tom because as a working artist, you have to push hard and grow a thick skin to get your work out there. Along the way, you will hear a lot of no's. Tom is a successful artist, not just from his skill as a creator alone but because of his can do attitude and his likeable personality. An example of how Tom goes above and beyond was when he stayed awake on a small rowing boat for 24 hours. He collected water samples from along the river Severn in Worcester to then create this

Final video of Torn Emotions for Portrait   I decided to change the music for my short video using Artist Cleo Sol- Myself. I feel that the lyrics work with this piece giving the viewer hope if you are going through a troubling time. I was unfortunate on this day of recording to not have a beautiful sunny day so I created my own light in the background to recreate a sunny day as I wanted to get that sun ray effect on the video. I attached an A3 piece of acetate to the back of my piece and then I further stitched on top to connect my images all together. This was to correct where I removed the stitching on acetate I didn't like.
