Based on my feedback the main thing rachel had against my piece was that the cut out plays were too sloppy just because a couple of them overlapped. That was the point, it's a collage it's not supposed to be perfectly square and neat, because that would take away from the meaning of my collage. She also said that the paper on my play tiles wasn't rubbed off completely. I would agree with that, but that's the whole reason I took so long on my project and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be done at this point if I would have actually tried to rub them off completely. I think what's successful about my piece is the meaning and mood behind my artwork. The background and writing on the football help reflect off it.
So far in my collage I have pieces of my playbook cut out and gelled. The only problem I encountered was when peeling the gel off on some of these I couldn't get the paper off completely or id end up accidentally ripping the paper. So far im solving these but rubbing the paper more softly with more water and being more gentle when handling them. The only plan i decided to make was glossing the papers to the collage instead of just gluing them on there.
My plan for this art was to make a collage that would reflect off of my own interests and show a little bit of what I like to do and who I am. I did this by planning out on my thumbnails and once I had an idea going I moved it to my final sketch. I decided to add texture to my painting. it adds a more realistic look to my football field. The technique I planned to use to add texture was crumbling up a piece of tracing paper to help it look more like grass. I took risks by deciding wether or not to centralize the goal post.This is my brainstorming list of ideas. I told myself I was going to come up with as many ideas as possible for me to be able to visualize an idea in my head about what i wanted to do. My main idea was something about football. I came up with words and ideas that could reflect off my main topic to put in my collage. I came up with 9 ideas and 1 quote.
My ideas consisted of football, teamwork,leadership, perseverence, dedication, getting better, playbook symbols, footballs, mental strength. I am now able to come up with a better idea now that I have all my ideas better organized. The quote that i came up with that my collage will reflect off of is, "Dont compare yourself to others, compare yourself to the person from yesterday." |
