In Thursday's art class we continued creating designs for our final piece, from the Renaissance paintings we had researched. I first drew some of the images as they were seen in the picture, and began to alter them to make them look more abstract like Anthony Caro's and Alexander Calder's work. Once I had came up with a few ideas, I chose the best design and started drawing it out as my final design; this time using colour and tone and writing what material  I would be using and why. I quite like my final design as I think it fits well with my project, however, I found it quite difficult to come up with designs as I didn't know how to make something look different to the proper image so that it looked abstract. I also started cutting out shapes to create my miniature sculpture out of card. However, I had to come back in to college today so that I could finish it within the next few classes.
