Entangled Monograms – D and F – Angela Porter

Over the previous couple of weeks, I’ve been experimenting with monograms and my fashion of artwork. It’s enjoyable attempting out various things, and it results in new insights into how I can categorical myself.

My self-expression is consistently altering and evolving. Generally I appear to make some breakthrough and go forwards with it for some time. However one thing occurs, like a slip into poor psychological and emotional well being, and I retreat into my acquainted types. That doesn’t imply progress isn’t being made. After I look again, I can see how even my ‘consolation artwork’ has subtly, or not so subtly, modified because the breakthrough shares its affect subconsciously.

I maintain returning handy lettering, hoping to learn how I could make it work for me. Monograms actually do appear to be the way in which ahead.

I’m additionally excited about my relationship with color palettes. I actually do wrestle at instances with the colors I put collectively, notably when utilizing conventional media. They appear like a good suggestion on the time…however…that isn’t at all times how I really feel about them as I proceed so as to add color.

Distinction generally is a factor I wrestle with too. I actually do assume quite simple color palettes – monochromatic or analogous, are more likely to be the way in which for me to go in the intervening time. They at all times appear to work properly, monochromatic, particularly as I can concentrate on distinction way more.

Digitally, I really feel I do higher, however once more a restricted palette is one of the best factor for me.

I do know that, like my drawing/design abilities, it will enhance with time and observe. However I get so pissed off once I make the identical foolish errors time and again with color selections.
