I am currently studying light and the effects it can have on the atmosphere of a space at Uni. During the summer, I had the chance to visit Paris. Here are several images which I show how different lighting can enhance or change a place or object.
Camera model made from construction card. I then covered the model with camera themed paper. 
I carved these crayons using a small knife. The art topic I chose to do was “Childhood Fun” for my AS Art in school.
Yellow: A witch, Green: A face, Pink: Toy blocks, Orange: Cat, Blue: Wizard, Orange #2: Spiral design, Green #2: Car
Harry Potter – Hogwarts Crest coloured using pro markers and drawn in black pen.
I attended a printmaking workshop (Seacourt Print workshop in Bangor) with my class mates while at school. We were each given a piece of acetate in advance to scratch into using a pin/ needle etc, scratching more densely in more shadowed areas and lighter or no scratches for the highlights. I chose an image of paint brushes in a jar which I took. When we arrived at the workshop we rubbed the ink into the scratches before putting the acetate sheet through a roller printing press which transferred the image onto specially prepared paper.
Here i experimented with different styles. `I attempted two coloured prints , one in more detail, a monochrome print and finally a print with a background pattering using textured wall paper.
An early photograph of a piece I had been working in in A Level art. It isn’t completely finished in the photograph. The theme given to us for art was “Old and New”. I chose to do a project based on cameras. The A2 Acrylic painting above is of one of my favourite old cameras. It was very interesting to paint and i really enjoyed it.
We worked on a project in uni which involved recording details of your morning routine, noticing different textures, shadows and shapes normally overlooked. I took this photo of the staircase in my home. I loved how the light shining in created different light and shadow effects. To enhance this contrast I changed the image into black and white.
I hand painted a pair of plain white plimsoles using acrylic paint. 😀
Here’s my Blog showing what projects I am working on in uni and pervious art projects 😀
