My first two silhouette ink paintings were focused on a concrete, graspable subject. The car that I used created an interesting approach to size. I looked at these paintings through the lens of size and motion. Also in the second painting I worked in my use of space and more interesting composition. The first painting was more experimental to see what I resonated with me and to figure out how I wanted to move on. The second painting I worked on using more space. I thought that the one larger, separated car stood out nicely in contrast to the smaller, more bunched and gridlocked cars. When I was done and was able to observe the finished project, I realized that the bunched cars came out very symmetrical. This wasn't necessarily a bad thing, I just personally didn't like it much.
For continuing on in this project, I would like to bring more of a sense of abstraction to my next painting(s). Also, keeping with the idea of movement and experimenting with that. Composition is another focus point of mine. I tend to take a short time with composition which I would like to change. I believe that composition is one of the most important ideas in any sort of art. Making a composition that I am happy with and demonstrates a good use of space with the movement of my drawings is my overall goal for the rest of this project.
