URBAN EXPRESSIONISM:

PAUL PETERSON

I love the painterly and expressive mark making  Paul Peterson uses in his pieces. His work has really inspired me and i want to create this expressive edge into my own work.

Urban Expressionism

URBAN EXPRESSIONISM: Title for final Major project. I want this project to be quite conceptual, focusing on the current recession and the working class of this present day. I am going to begin drawing this week and hope to create a mixutre of drawings some tight and linear whilst others are free and very expressive. For this project i have been inspired by street art and derelict buildings as well as more surburban and affluent areas in the North East.

Minor project hand in

My textiles 3rd year minor project has all been handed in!! Really happy with the results thought I would share some images of my work with you! I have completed a range of work based on my drawings at the beginning of the project! My main influences are urban landscapes and the natural environment! I love being expressive with colour and texture!

Design

I love the colour of this painting i have done and am excited to have it digitally printed! I use a lot of colour in my work and i think this works well with my theme.

Work bay

My Work bay at college is currently a work in process! Have lots going on at the minute and am currently in the design development stage of the project!! Really enjoying it at the minute and hope to produce some innovative design layouts for furnishings and wallpaper :)
