1.  Repetition

Figure 1.1 Digitalize of Repetition 12/9/2022 (week 3)


Figure 1.3 Final work of Repetition 20/9/2022 (week 4)

The inspiration was from Instagram, because I always see many short videos about foxes and I think its very cute then I decided to draw it. Somehow I think four foxes wouldn't be enough to present "Repetition" in this image, so I drew the bushes as circles which matched the definition of Repetition. 




2. Movement


Figure 2.0 Sketch of Movement 3/9/2022 (week 2)


Figure 2.1 Digitalize of Movement 10/9/2022(week 3)


Figure 2.3 Final work of Movement 19/9/2022 (week 4)

An image of fireworks in city during night. I found some ideas from Google which related to Movement. I decided to do fireworks because I remembered a scene from an anime called " Fireworks", and I drew a girl with kimono watching the fireworks. But I found it very empty below the image so I changed it to buildings.  




3. Harmony


Figure 3.0 Sketch of Harmony 5/9/2022 (week 2)


Figure 3.1 Final work of Harmony 11/9/2022 (week 3)

What I 've learned about design principle of Harmony is using a painting that features mostly different tones of green and the visually satisfying effect. So I decided to draw flamingo and coloured it in dreamy pink and put some greens at the background.




4. Symbol


Figure 4.0 Sketch of Symbol 5/9/2022 (week 2)


Figure 4.1 Sketch of Symbol 13/9/2022 (week 3)

Figure 4.2 Final work of Symbol 18/9/2022 (week 4)

The ingredients, baking equipment and breads in the image are all symbolize a baker. The source of my inspiration is my aunty because she is a baker. 




5. Word and Image


Figure 5.0 Sketch of Word and Image 6/9/2022 (week 2)


Figure 5.1 Sketch of Word and Image 12/9/2022 (week 3)

Figure 5.2 Digitalize of Word and Image 19/9/2022 (week 4)

Figure 5.3 Final work of Word and Image 26/9/2022 (week 5) 

An image of a word, "TRAVEL". I decided to use this word because its been years I didn't travel since the pandemic started. So I drew these famous buildings and statues which represent different country where tourists like to visit during their trip. 




Feedback

Week 2: Symbol- need to rearrange.
               Word and Image- draw more travel places in the word, because not only travel to Paris.

Week 3: Repetition- the background is empty, add some trees and blue sky.
               Movement- the buildings need some lights, middle of the sky is empty so need to put more                                         fireworks.
               Word and Image- make the word in a horizontal line.
Week 4: Word and Image- put colors in it.
