•After creating painted sculptures with wood, I began to think about which other materials I could work with. I bought some tiles with colours that were similar to my colour palette I had and I decided to paint shapes that link to my paintings onto the tiles. Each tile includes two different colours, that I think contrast well with each other.
•I have also started to paint on wood and found objects with a smooth surface. Surface has been important in my work for the colours and shapes to work well with it. I have painted a minimalist abstract painting which is covered in bright orange acrylic paint and one dark blue triangle in the top right corner of the wood. I wanted to create this as I wanted to experiment more with focusing on fewer elements and creating less busy paintings. I was happy with the outcome of this painting I think the colours work well with some of the busier paintings I have made and create a good contrast between them.
•Richard Tuttle is an artist who I have researched as I particular like his use of different materials in his artwork. This has helped me experiment in different ways with different materials and found objects.
