In this weeks crit session at home I just wanted some clarification of the ideas I had for my prints and some help with thinking about my animation. The feedback on the dip pen drawings I did was really positive. For me, this exercise was about staring to pull my ideas together and see how this could work and the positive feedback and the suggestion that I might just need to refine these ideas clarified in my mind that I am going in the right direction. One criticism I received was that the image with the hand stealing the pearl from the queen was the weakest of the four images, it was said that it looks a bit like a cupcake which I can totally see and understand. I do like the concept of this drawing though so I could maybe work on this to make the concept come across more clearly.
While discussing the ideas for my prints I thought that I could do three prints based on the designs discussed previously and then one larger print based on the image below which would tie these all together. This then progressed onto having the image below as the basis for my animation so that the animation showed more things happening whereas the prints were just focussing on one chess piece and the situation it is in.
I think the main thing I need to think about now is which printing process / processes I want to use because this might affect the way I have to make my images.
I didn't have a lot to discuss this evening but I do feel more confident with the direction I am going in now I have received some positive feedback and some suggestions of how to progress.
