'Seascapes'

Being able to create my own theme for this project I decided to go with 'seascapes'. I had just been to Mallorca that summer and I had taken a variety of pictures of the sea and I thought it would be really interesting to look at. During this project we were able to visit 'The Biscuit Factory' which is an art gallery in Newcastle. Amazingly I found an artist who focuses on seascapes and landscapes. Mike Bell uses mixed media in an abstract way and this inspired me greatly.

This is a clay piece experimenting with texture and colour. I was trying to convey the feeling and movement of the sea and what's beneath.

This is the final piece I produced for this project using mixed media: sand, glue, clay, tissue, material and acrylic paint.
