Ink drawings

I seen some of my tutors work Claire Hiett's work and decided that I like the ink drawing a lot and decided to do some of my own. 

I like how they look lose and free and I let the drips drip down the paper I think that it makes an nice effect. 

I wanted to experiment with different fine art media's as well as printing. 

I like the way my drawings turned out as they look simple and elegant. 

I wanted them to just about look like the leaves I was drawing because I think it makes the viewers look at it more to see what exactly it is. 

The top two of this photo were happy accidents as I spilt too much ink on to the paper but it let the ink drip down the paper hoping that it will turn out ok. 

These are my favourite ink drawings I done even though they were accidents, the light green colour stands out more and because you have to really look at the image to see what they really are makes it more interesting for the viewer. 

They look simple and liner which is good for an ink drawing as you don't want too much detail as I think it will ruin the image. 

I plan to re make these images to put in the show as I think they will look good and professional. 

These two did not turn out as well as I expected, these were my first attempt of the ink drawing. 

I did not like these images as I don't feel that they were professional enough or good enough because they looked rushed and look badly done because it was my first attempt. 

I wanted to see how a liner and a full coloured ink drawing would look like but I think I was too heavy handed and too controlling on my practice ones. I think the less control you have the better it turns out.

I learnt after this though and went on to do better ones which I want to put in my show. 

Jennifer Steinkamp

Jennifer Steinkamp uses computer animation and media to create projection installations in order to explore ideas about architectural space, motion and perception.  Her digitally animated work ables her to play between actual space and illusions, creating environments which the image and art objects become blurred. 

Steinkamp uses digital projections to transform architectural space providing the viewer with a sensational experience.

She often works with musicians like Andrew Bucksbarg and Jimmy Johnson to add sound into her work. 

I really like Steinkamp's work as I haven't seen anything like this before, I find it unique and different and it makes me want to know more about how she makes her work and what it is about because it draws me into her work. Her work draws me in because of the bright, bold colours which stand out that are detailed.  I find her work more appealing because she works on large scales which makes you want to look her work longer.
I think her work stands out more on a black background as her work looks luminous against it which makes it eye catching as it gives off a positive vibe.
Her work is displayed in the dark, it creates a mysterious atmosphere as most exhibitions are shown in bright light.
