The document discusses the process of creating artworks based on a location. It describes: - Using different media like paint, pen and ink to study and represent the location, with watercolor working best. - Creating digital models using SketchUp to better understand structures like a greenhouse. - Producing a large collage of a rose bush and incorporating different materials to add shadows and detail. - Researching artists like Van Gogh and a illustrator to influence style and techniques for a sunflower study.

1. THE PLACE IN QUESTION

2. Location studies
Unit 12 (Fine Art)
a. recording of experiences
or information to develop
intentions
What approaches did you use
to examine and record your
location? Representing the
space; details; light etc. How
did you decide and which
worked the best? Why?
b use of materials,
processes and technology
or a combination of
materials, processes and
technology to develop
ideas
What did you learn through
your initial enquiries?
Experiments and techniques,
use of an experimental process
to generate new ideas,
suitability of some rather than
others?
a) When I first started to look at my area I made
many study's, I used medias such as paint, pen and
ink. I found it useful to study my area. It helped me
understand the perspective of the garden and I
learnt about how I can use marks to suggest space,
shapes and plants.
b) When I was doing my initial study's I also looked
at different artist to help me find ways to
represent space. I found working in water colour
looked most effective for my area in question as
the colours suited the flowers and other plants

3. Location studies
SketchUp and Movie
Multimedia
b) Developing multimedia ideas
by combining the use of
technology processes.
b) In my area there was a green
house, i used google sketch up
to create my own green house. I
used the simple push and cut
tools to create the shapes and
then the paint bar for colours
and textures. Google sketch up
helped me to understand the
perspective of the green house.
I used real measurements I took
for my area to produce this
model in sketch up

4. Making and
developmental work -
(Large drawing, 3D, print)
Unit 12 (Fine Art)
a. recording of experiences
or information to develop
intentions
What approaches did you use to
examine and record your
location? Representing the
space; details; light etc. How did
you decide and which worked
the best? Why?
b use of materials,
processes and technology or
a combination of materials,
processes and technology to
develop ideas
What did you learn through your
initial enquiries? Experiments
and techniques, use of an
experimental process to
generate new ideas, suitability
of some rather than others?
a) I was thinking about how I
could present my area. I did a
big collage of a rose bush that
was in my place of question
and found it was hard to
create shadows using simple
colours, so I worked into it
using paint and other art
materials such as chalk.
b) As I said before from doing my
study of my place in question I
found using water colour create a
nice effect of plants. I also used
mark making and this worked
very well to produce larger work
with little detail.

5. Using historical and
contemporary
research
Unit 9
Contextual References
a research into
historical and
contemporary work,
showing understanding of
the contexts which
influenced the work .
What have you learned about
the influences on other’s work?
B recording and
presenting information
explaining the use of
visual language in others’
work. Where have you
analysed examples? What did
you learn?
c use of contextual
references in own work
How have you used
references? What impact did
they have on your ideas?
• A) I looked at the artist Van Gogh,
when I was creating a study of a
sunflower, using ink and water
colours I managed to produce a
substantial piece of work.
• B I did research on a illustrator
called Jonathan Allardyce, the style
he used taught me a lot
• C) from doing research on how
different artist use perspective this
intern helped me with doing my
own perspective of my place in
question.

6. Unit 13 (Design)
a) Resolve the needs of
the brief to develop
intentions
How did you develop the
final brief? What client / end
user is it for? Why?
What constraints and
requirements did you
consider?
What research did you
undertake into your chosen
area of creative enquiry?
b) Develop a range of
ideas in response to the
brief.
How did you develop your
ideas for the final outcome?
What techniques did you use
to generate ideas? What
influenced you in doing this?
Developing your
personal brief
a) For my final piece I didn’t have a
client but was working for a piece
that would be hung in a gallery.
I thought about the size and how it
would look in a space, I choose the
size it is because it would fit nicely
in a home or in a gallery.
b) For my final outcome I used
paint and ink and stencilling, I
choose these techniques as the
are what I used throughout my
book.

7. Unit 11 Develop & Produce
Own Ideas
a) Create and develop ideas in
response to the brief.
How did you interpret your
brief? What different
approaches to the same theme
did you explore? What
decisions did you make to
refine your ideas?
b) Plan and produce final
outcome using specialist
working methods and
processes.
How did you decide on the final
outcome? Why was this the
best approach? How did you
choos the techniques you’ve
used? Did they work
effectively?
Developing your
personal brief
a)To refine my idea I thought out
how I could bring all the things I
have been experimenting with
together.
Such as I produced stencil work
throughout my book and used it
on my final outcome.
b) I think the choose to use a
stencil was a good one because it
is like a window to the painting
behind.

8. Applying Professional;
practice in your work
Unit 10
Professional Practice
a investigate and analyse
professional practice
Where have you looked at the
working methods and
approaches of others in this
project?
b apply and develop
professional practice in own
work
How did you adopt an approach
from researching the above?
c investigate and apply
health and safety and legal
requirements.
What health & safety risks have
you avoided? How?
d appropriate standards
of professional working
approach
How did you refine and present
your work to a professional
• a) throughout my book I looked
at artist and how they worked. I
tried to mimic the work and use
there styles
• b) I used painting approach's
from artists I looked at in my own
work.
• c) when doing the stencils I used
a craft knife, there were health
and safety risks involved in this, I
always cut away from myself to
avoided cutting myself
• d) to refine my work, I took care
when doing and went back over
my painted in different steps.
.

9. Unit 8
Personal, Portfolio
Development &
Progression
a personal presentation
and communication skills
b portfolio presentation
techniques How have you
presented your work?
Did you make particular use of
photography or presentation
boards?
How have you considered
clarity of information in your
sketchbooks and boards?
c identifying and
pursuing progression goals
What evidence do you have of
research into progression?
Photos of open days, website
research? What have you
learned so far?
B) in my art I used
photography skills, I played
around with shadows and
angels. I many took photos of
my 3d work. I made a lamp
and found it produced good
images.
C)I have done a lot of
research online about open
days and where I'm thinking
of apply to.
