Week 24

Looking back on the week, I believe I have finally made a breakthrough on this project. I realised I have been too focused on my emotions and putting myself into this shirt that I got stuck. This week something just clicked and I found myself inspired by the curves and softer lines in my work. This has been challenging as I usually like to stick to bold strong lines, so creating more organic designs has been a challenge.

I felt as if I had a lot of ideas but didn't really like any of them, However speaking to Laura, she showed me that my work was flowing and all linked together. I believe I was looking so closely at it I didn't see the bigger story flowing through. Sometimes you need to step back and look at everything as a whole not individual ideas.

I had also been held back with the thought of not knowing how to create the shapes I was designing. This is something go am less worried about not as Laura helped me with a few ideas of how to translate my ideas into reality.

I have begun to put all the images and experiments onto photoshop and collage what I've got to create my final piece as I believe I have a lot of good ideas and I now need to start combining them instead of hunting for something completely new.

This week I believe I have not done much work on my essay on the trench coat. This is something I need to pick up again and not leave for the last minuet.
