Theme Board.

For my theme Board I took inspiration from all areas of research.

For the back ground I used gouache, tissues paper and gum strip to add texture to a flat surface.  This did become difficult when wanting to create a crisp line as the texture distorted the lines.

 I used many different media to create this sheet; I added materials such as lace, cotton, wire. And I feel it adds something more the sheet as it isn’t just a flat painting. I experimented with painting roses on this sheet which was incredibly difficult as I had never before even drawn a rose but I feel I created some really beautiful flowers.

My favourite part of the sheet is defiantly the colours used as the sweet candy colours which reflect the children’s tea parties and the light snacks that were chosen to eat throughout a tea party in many different eras.

I from this sheet I’m going to create different visual sheets which will forward my research and idea of my own tea party.
