A2 development observation

After looking back into my observations, I concluded that the most successful pieces were the more expressive fine liner drawings, that concentrated and magnified on the twists and tensions of each individual piece of the of the recycled plaited material.
Producing wonderful strong, expressive line drawings. Which in my eyes had a striking correlation to works produce by "Allison Lambert" being highly communicative  observations.
Inspiring me to take this piece forwards.
I began by blowing the original drawing up to a A2 scale, getting an idea of scale/proportion on the page.  I then proceeded by tracing the basic out line of the observation making sure I had an exact replica of the original. Moving on to looking in to extreme details of the materials the folds and fibres (excluding colour for now). 
So I began to elaborate on the plaited details, working from the blown up image.
After completing this I looked into introducing colour into the A2 pieces, so I decided to use ink made out of water and brusho, that would be applied through using a pipet. A technique that allows me to be accurate in how the colour is applied but also enabling me to be expressive at the same time. I began by creating a colour pallet similar to the ones in the installation and particularly in the section I was focusing on.
Producing a successful piece that took on qualities of colour, observational skills and inspiration from expressive works from "Allison Lambert".
Overall I enjoyed creation and developing this A2 development piece as I can now see how this piece could be further developed in to a motif with the beautiful unorthodox shapes and complex arches. Which will also challenge me.
