Helen Moffatt Way of Seeing and Talking Pattern
***It won’t let me upload one of my images***
I found Way of Seeing and Talking Pattern easier than Talking Colour. I think this is because I am further into the project and more confident. I also love playing around with lines and shapes regardless of colour, so it was more in my comfort zone! My favourite drawing from this task, and the one I can see the most potential in for design, is one of a building reflected in a grid of windows. I didn’t draw the window frames, and I only used thin black outlines to show what I could see on the glass, making the distorted reflections really abstract. After this, I shrunk the image (it was an A3 drawing, and after shrinking it fit 32 times onto A3) in photoshop then repeated it and re-drew it (traced the shrunk scan) over another drawing. Because of how tiny the scale is compared to the original, the shape that attention is drawn to changes from being the individual lines to being the whole section of what is repeated.

I really love your drawings in this task, I can see the way you observe life through your works. when you draw objects, you leave some parts of the windows and ignore the frame. that’s so smart because that makes the things you want to express more strong. also, the lines are combined quite well with the colors, both made your drawings layering and rich. the one I like the best is the first one you upload, I love the different colored lines, the composition creates a sense of space. makes me feel both reality and fantasy.
