3. Developing ideas
• Experimenting
• Exploring
• Showing your journey visually
• Using your research in your book
creatively
• Making links and connections
• Using practical outcomes to inform your
progress - reviewing and refining.

4. Decisions to make...
• What images do I want to develop?
• Do I have a theme - e.g. music / objects
/ portraits / landscapes etc
• What materials will I use?
• What processes will I use?
• Which artists will influence my work?
• What type of artwork will I make? 3d /
2d / textile / mixed media / installation ?

5. Experiments to
create• Combining imagery into possible
compositions
• Trying out materials and processes
• Creating artists references to help
influence your ideas
• Testing out colour combinations
• Finding more 1st hand imagery to use
in your final piece - drawings and
photographs

6. developing ideas
using artists
reference• Your final piece should not look like an
artists reference - do not copy an artists
work.
• Use your chosen artists to feed your
ideas - take parts of what they do and
use it in your own way.
• Use your own images & research as the
base of your ideas - then use artists to
help you explore / develop / expand

7. Collecting ideas
• Look through your book and at the
images available to help you.
• Inside the footprints create / gather -
Colours / Images / Words / Textures
that interest you for ideas.
• 30 minutes!

49. Possible final pieces
• The following slides will give you some ideas
for POSSIBLE final pieces and how to
create them.
• YOU CAN HAVE AN ALTERNATIVE IDEA
TO THESE!!

50. 3D CERAMIC WORK
Create an
abstract design
using shapes
and patterns
from your
research.
Create a pot, a
sculpture or a
relief work.

51. CREATE A 3D RELIEF WORK
Build up shapes and images from your
research using card, mod rock, material, wire,
paper. Work upwards from a flat surface, layer
and stack shapes. Add colour using paint.
Incorporate real objects.

52. CREATE A PAINTING
Use shapes, images and textures from your
research. Combine them inside a simple shape to
make a new composition. Add colour and detail
using acrylic, or watercolour paints. Add raised
details using card, paper and string.

53. CREATE A PAPER MACHE OR MODROC
SCULPTURE OR RELIEF
Use paper mache or mod roc to build up textures
and shapes from your research imagery. You can
build a sculpture or 3d relief by creating a skeleton
structure in wire – then covering it with layers of
paper mache. Add colour using ink and, or paints.

54. CREATE A MIXED MEDIA PAINTING USING
YOUR PORTRAIT
Use paint, print & collage and drawing to create a
self portrait. Use images and textures and colours
from your research to create interesting
backgrounds and imagery to surround or fill features
of your body or face.

55. CREATE AN ASSEMBLAGE PIECE
Use collections of real objects and found images or
photographs together with painting and drawing.
Create a composition inside a box or a hanging
sculpture, or a free standing artwork

56. CREATE AN ABSTRACT PAINTING
Use overlapping and repeated images from your
research to create an abstract design. Add colours
and patterns from objects or photographs, or create
a personal colour scheme.

57. CREATE A REPEAT PRINTED IMAGE
Use imagery from your research to create
poly-tile prints, mono-prints and stencils in a
range of colours. Cut these out, re-arrange
and collage them into a layered composition.

58. CREATE A MIXED MEDIA
PRINTED COLLAGE
Use a range of printing
techniques on different papers to
re-create images from your
research.
Cut these out and layer them
with other textures and shapes
cut from ink stained paper to
create a layered collage.

59. CREATE A LAYERED
TEXTURED COLLAGE
Use a range of imagery
from your research and
combine them into a new
composition. Use various
materials to add colours
and textures in layers.
Sew into collage, use wire
and string, create detail
using a range of materials.

60. CREATE A 2D MIXED MEDIA COLLAGE
Use images from your research and re-create them
using a range of techniques in 2D to make a new
composition. Use paint, print, ink-stained paper,
patterned paper, news print, magazine imagery. Cut and
tear imagery or layer it to make a complex mixed media
collage.

61. CREATE AN INTERIOR OR LANDSCAPE
Use painting and drawing to create small parts of a
landscape or room which you join together to create
a disjointed or distorted composition.

62. Developing ideas
• Decide what you could make and create a series of
experiments using combinations of images, textures
and colours from your research so far.
• Think about techniques you have already used.
• Write notes about what the piece means and how
you would make it – how does it reflect the exam
title? Where do your ideas come from?

65. observe
• Create an observed drawing of an object that
relates to your ideas - this can be in any materials
of your choice and should fill an A4 page.
• You should spend at least 30 minutes on this
task.
