Bus station wall art

my first design that includes the circular feature is this one.It includes two people who are going down a whirlwind together.This could suggest that time in Worksop goes so fast that you feel like you are being sucked away.I like the colour effect this image has.All the red gradually starts to fade as it goes on which i think is nice.
This design uses the same idea as the first.Though the colour idea is similar i still prefer the first one.
With this one i thought of the idea that the people would be falling down instead of sideways.
The characters on both of these designs were used on my square designs before hand.
This is another design that i chose to work on. This one is a little different to the others as i have not used the spiral idea.I did how ever include the people like i did last time.
This is a more updated version then the last one with texted added to (this text is small for the sole purpose of not taking up room and not being too bold).The text its self reads "
I thought that it would relate my work to the bus stop a little more.

Worksop bus station design

One of my ideas for the Worksop bus stain was to use the moon(or more or less the solar eclipse).
This way i could experiment around with different compositions.Since we have not been told yet if we can include colour into our work i have decided to stick with black,white,and grey.
I quite like the colour scheme as well and i personally think it looks quite mystical.
Below is my first design:
This is by far my favourite of the two.As i described above i think the best bit about this is the colours.I used a template of a hand to get the shape(i will try find the template ).
I also researched solar eclipses and found pictures to uses as ideas.
Both pictures show how the moon slowly changes.It also shows the shape which helps.



This was mainly a tester as i wanted to see what the hand would loo like in white and how it would look if i changed the composition.I haven't worked as much on this one purely because i was just curious about how it would look.

Worksop bus station(1981 Drive through the town)


link to video: http://youtu.be/jP9hQRHNvf4

As part of my research(and general interest) i watched this video which showed me worksop in 1981.
Here we could see the old shops that used to be located in worksop.Some shops like wool worths(which had closed down).And how some new roads, like Turner road, had been built.
It was really interesting to see worksop a lot more cleaner and to a degree a lot more quieter.
On the tour places like the flour mill were the same as they are now and have just was much use today.
We also found out before the college was actually made,that it was a mansion that was owned by a rich man who had made the massive house for his daughter and another (Highfield house) for his other daughter.The music room (which was for his other daughter) is still interacted and is being used today.

This picture appears to have a beautiful water effect.
Picture that is formed partly by splatters.
These examples of Whimsy art mix medias including paint and water colours.
I shall think about using these colours in my LSG (learners survival guide). 
I may think about using paints in my final idea.

One artist I found while browsing was Clara Niles whos art work includes


Both pieces use a amazing looking water effect.
I also love the fact she includes animals that have had a rainbow effect added to them.

Art deco

 Art Deco is an influential visual arts design style that first appeared in France after World War I and began flourishing internationally in the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s before its popularity waned after World War II.[1] It is an eclectic style that combines traditional craft motifs with Machine Age imagery and materials. The style is often characterized by rich colours, bold geometric shapes and lavish ornamentation. (Taken from Wikipedia)
Vogue magazine front.I really like this picture simply because of the elegance behind it. The way the woman holds the mirror does appear to be very' vogue' .I also like the slight colour fade throughout all the picture. And both blues go well together. 



poster Art deco themed.This picture personally made me think of Futurism and what futurists were trying to achieve with their pictures and ideas(futuristic goals like machines) 
I will most likely be using the ideas of having buildings in the back ground,foreground,e.g...


Art deco paper craft.
Although I would not know how to incorporate paper craft into my work I still like the way this piece has been put together. Using paper and crafted roses seems like a smart idea.

As seen above are some examples of art deco. These pictures give off a 1930 vibe. 

Worksop bus shelter update

Today we met with the project manger for the Worksop bus station build. He hinted that it would be a 1930 theme(art deco style).He very much insisted that it look as professional as possible. Other factors we were told to consider were how detailed we made the final design. If it was too complicated there may be problems printing it out. Simplifying ideas is a option if the final idea becomes a problem. Another thing he said was that he only wanted small areas fully optic as he wanted peoples view to not be blocked
We did not get any implications as to what colour of the piece would be but he may have preferred but he said he didn't want them to be to bright. He kept stressing that he didn't want to but any parameters on what we could and couldn't do on the work.
I have now got a better idea of what to do in my final design but I will have to wait until I find out what the colour of the integer will be before I decide the colour of the outside.

Worksop Bus shelter (wall murals)


As I was researching into how I could present my work I came upon Art murals
Some of which showed a great splash of colour.While others used simple black and white.
I hope that in the future we will be able to use colour in our work as this help me in the progression of my work. Here are some examples of art murals:


These would be the more classic ones like this:


We're made in the ancient times to depict God's and goddesses of the times.

Pt.1 Worksop Bus shelter

First off I would like to apologize for the side ways picture.
This was one of my first attempts at a idea for the Worksop Bus stop.
My idea was to combine all the best things about Worksop. Including 
the Worksop library,  Savoy cinema, and Clumber park. I also thought including things to do with Bassetlaw , for example Gardening.
The picture at the top right was my next idea called' Turning up to Worksop'
Which includes a book that has a pair of ear phones plugged into it. This means you can connect into Worksop. It would include buildings as' wave lengths'.
I shall develop this idea further for now.
I have been using references to help me with my work. Hopefully this will impress my client (who is coming all the way from Nottinghamshire .
The Savoy cinema,
And Worksop library ,
I will be using these photos as a guide as to some main features of Worksop (Bassetlaw).
