Project 5 - Day 6

Had my group meeting today and got feedback on my work for this project for the first time. Feeling encouraged that I didn't get it wrong but Jo did pick up on things looking the same and said that it would be good if there was more of a variety of things I had gathered for my alphabet, but I explained what I was thinking when I did that and it seemed okay. I also did a little line drawing of the H, I think the shape of the H will look really good as a repeat pattern - I'm imagining it looking a bit like a chain and I'm liking that. I also did some work on photoshop, cutting up parts of photographs, I think I will repeat them small and collage with them in the shape of the H. Jo said today that I should be trying to do at least some of it with my hands and not rely on the computer. I like working on photoshop a lot but I can see why it's important to have done some of the work physically - it is a lot more personal than working completely on a computer - computer work is kind of perfect in measurements and lines and things like that but that can be bad for work. Although I do feel better when measurements and lines are perfect-ish.
