Reflections on Morandi Project: 30 days daily drawing
Morandi seems to have this very graphic style, where you can see the outlines of his objects which feature sharp contrast.I surprised myself, as I thought i would become bored with the limited still life subject. It made me think outside the box more, and started to have fun looking at different angles and ways to express the simple shapes. On reflecting on my daily drawings, I found once I let go and started looking at either shape, tone or linework i created more fluid and organic shapes. I struggled with the linework in week 4, but feel if I explored it using printmaking I might enjoy it more.Going forward i would like to look at doing drypoint or etchings for more Morandi inspired still lifes.I would also like to look at how Morandi used colour, by studying his watercolour and oil paintings.
