New layers on PhotoShop-Castle brief

 Several layers ready to be laser cut

Below are some examples of my layers that are ready to be laser cut. I am so happy that I have managed to complete them as even though I enjoyed adding new and intricate detail to some layers, I also felt the strain of how long this was taking whilst still juggling other projects.







I look forward to seeing all the layers cut out and I hope that the layers line up together. I will be putting a 20mm border around the outside of each layer to give it structure and integrity. Everything that is black in the background will be cut out. Everything that is white will be attached to the border.


Above is an A4 and A3 test piece of the new sketches. I did this to check the borders worked and were in proportion.

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...
