Final Texture Reflection
1. My collection of textures are extremely varied, ranging from natural to geometrical textures. I have used natural textures such as wood, leaves, and flowers while using inorganic textures such as glue, metal chains, and mesh.
2. My organization of the textures were very meticulously planned. I felt that using inorganic textures were more interesting when paired with other inorganic textures, and natural textures were more interesting with other natural textures. I experimented with both in one art piece, and found that although they do work together, I preferred using similar textures in one art piece. Through experimentation of textures, I found my preference when combining textures.
Degree of Craftsmanship and Attention to Detail:
1. As stated above, my exploration and varied combination of textures are exemplified through my artwork. You are able to see unique combinations that may not be common, but work. And through there various combinations, I was able to find my preferences.
2. I worked my absolute hardest to find different textures that complement each other and find texture that work well when left alone, my work experiment with both and as I developed my textural skills, I was able to refine my work and improve tremendously.
3. My final texture block is very unified as I used both inorganic and organic textures, but not so in a manner that is puzzling and confused, in a way that they complement each other. On one side, I used organic textures and used geometrical texture on the other. Not only do they vary in shapes and sizes, but they tend to vary in color, giving my final texture block contrast between colors.
Level of Technical Understanding and Growth:
1. I have developed technically grown through my artwork as I refined my skills and techniques when using textures. I have improved my capabilities of using textures digitally and physically. My sculptures and physical textures tend to lack as much variation of textures as my digital works, but that is a personal preference which I have been able to make through experience and exposure to these different types of compositions.
2. As I worked, I was able to improve my skills and find that now, my artworks are in fact free of glaring technical flaws as I have been able to identify those flaws and fix them. My works benefitted from these lack of glaring flaws as my work has improved in quality.
