Evaluation

For this art coursework project, I have chosen the theme of “Patterns and Ceramics”; from using this title I followed a number of different steps in enabling me to complete my final piece. My final piece was completed after finishing a lot of preparation work in my sketchbook.

For my final piece I combined two wood boards and together by drilling. The wood board in the back is textured with tissue paper, PVA glue and a mixture of color ink. The wood board in the front is shaped as a boarder with a whole in the middle. The boarder is painted with the floral patterns of the cup that I have been using throughout the project. The background with stuck with painted tracing paper with vase's patterns on it.

The cup is placed on a plain surface. The lower and upper circles of the cup are much more parallel as compared to the original cup.

The design tone of the cup is unique, if we look at the decorations of the cup in the painting. The design consists of intermingling, flowers, leaves and plant stems. The tone of the cup on the left side is much darker, than the right side, which is produced in a much more vertical pattern by using linear strokes. The use of the dark and light patterns makes the background of the painting clearly visible for the observer. On the right side of the cup there is a dark area, which represents the shadow of the cup.

The positioning of the cup in the painting, along with all the tonal values makes it much more visible, which makes the light falling on top of the cup form the left side of the painting, which produces a shadow on the right side of the ...
