Rob Ryan.







I'm pretty into Rob Ryan's work as it is more illustration based than 3D, I may use this technique for my Task 2 poster design, but play around with adding some 3D elements as well.

Workshop 11/02.







These are some of my results from workshop 3. I think I may go with this plant like form but build it up more to make a more interesting sculpture to hang in the atrium.

Peter Callesen.








I decided to look at some other paper artists to get a different angle on this whole origami thing. i had no idea there are artists out there creating these kinds of pieces. defiantly found looking at Peter Callesen's work inspirational. It's given me a few ideas of what i could do for my task 2 poster also.

Workshop 04/02.





Again in this workshop i went in open minded trying not to over think what I'm doing and just fold the paper, though i was loosely basing this one on a shell. It's made quite a skeleton like structure which i think is quite interesting. I defiantly want my sculpture to be symmetrical, as a lot of what you find in nature is.

Natural Form & repetition.






Here's a bunch of images i've collected that show repetition in nature. I quite like the idea of making my task 1 sculpture look like a wave, which lead me to think about other sea going things. Like the texture on coral could be re created with some interesting origami skill.

Primary Research/Pattern in nature.








Here's some photos i took down Kingsbury water park early on a cold morning I was looking for repeat and interesting pattern within nature as a source of inspiration for my task 1 sculpture.

Workshop 28/01.




These are my results from the first workshop. I think it's quite evident that i have no idea what i'm doing, though i was having a few moments when folding and scoring the paper where it went well. I think not thinking about what i'm doing and just seeing what happens will produce some interesting outcomes. hopefully.

Richard Sweeney. Paper Man.





So we're having a few paper skills workshops run by Richard Sweeney. My first impression was, wow this guys good, quickly followed by, wow I'm not very good at this. First workshop was interesting though and I'm looking forward to working in a different way. I'll post the results from the workshop at a later date.
