Lesson 3 - Rule Based Art Blown Up!

Taking the shapes we created last week, we were to blow them up to a large scale, large enough to wrap around the body and create a structure. I wasn't happy with my initial shapes/rules so decided to start again, this time using the rules: Add a circle, take away a triangle, take away a circle and add a triangle.

I was much happier with the new mini 3D forms so scaled up the most complicated and started moving around the body to create interesting silhouettes.

I threw a few of my simpler shapes into the mix and am pretty happy with the results..........

Much to my dismay we were later asked to crush our structures (after how much love had gone in!), then uncrumple them and experiment with them on the body. But from this.......

.........to this........

I feel I can definitely use this as a starting point to further develop in sketch form.
