Artist's Comments

Please download for full view!! Warning: huge file!It's pretty huge btw

This is the A-level art unit that I have been putting my heart and soul into for the past few weeks. Each double page spread took a few days at least (I work waayyy too slowly e_e), and everything was drawn by hand except the wallpaper textures.

First hand work:
- The lilies on the left page of the second spread - [link]
- Everything except the stencils on the left page of the Spirals spread - [link] [link]
- The life drawings on the Female Form spread
- All of the titles (They took a long time, they deserve a mention!)

All the other images are studies by various artists, mainly Mucha (You can see the study of Mucha's 'Fruit' here [link] and Maria Spartali Stillman's 'Convent Lily' here [link]). This is because it is a Contextual Studies unit, so most of it has to be made up of research...boring, I know Dx I've been studying Alphonse Mucha, i.e his influences, his ideas and beliefs, the symbolism in his art and how he portrays beauty.

I'm pretty much ready to bring all of this together into a final piece now, I have a few loose ends to tie up but I know pretty much where I'm going with it :3

If there's anything up there you'd like to see in more detail, just give me a shout, but I think most of the interesting stuff is up in my gallery anyway xD

wow real nice...i am doing a GCSE in art currently, its boring as hell D= but this seems to make it worth it...i am looking froward to it, as i enjoy Art in general BUT this year has been pretty bad (not a very consistent teaching experience...) bu yeah only 3 months till i will be doing A level art =D
:icondozaloz:
Baaahhh A-Level art is haarrdd D: But you're lucky, because you'll be on the new syllabus, so you won't have all these units and things!! As far as I'm aware, instead of getting 3 units like we had, you'll just have one small project and then the rest is all portfolio based and you can do pretty much what you like. It's really annoying for our year!! Hopefully you'll enjoy it more than I did Dx

The position of the artist is humble. He is essentially a channel. ~ Piet Mondrian

I cannot expect even my own art to provide all the answers - only to hope it keeps asking all the right questions. ~ Grace Hartigan
