BA3b

Colour Testing

February 09, 2017

Today I spent my day in the print room, deciding on my initial colour palette and printing different weights of papers to work with for my drawings. Gaining inspiration from my London visit using the wall art and graffiti as colour influences. Using a variety of weights of paper, I explored cold and hot pressed papers which also made me think further about creating my own papers? I picked out the colours from my favourite image and then developed these colours further using Pantone colours. I have began to do this further with other images to develop my colour palette even further. I have also been studying trends on WGSN and I am hoping to use more green shades in response to the Greenery Pantone Colour of the year. I also see this as a challenge as I rarely use green in my work. I used the lime green in BA3a but hope to develop this shade further and also introduce other greens.
