1.I began my illustrating pages based on the overarching theme. I did this by drawing a conventional piece of commercial art and fine art and explored line styles to visually show the contrast between the two. I drew a fine art piece which was a sculpture my Rodin. I chose this artist because he was a very successful and well known sculptor. ‘Artists showed them only to initiates and only in the shape of paintings and pieces of sculpture’ (Munari, 1966, p.34).
2. After exploring how these two art types differ, I then combined them into one piece to relate to my research on how the categorisation of art seems to be blurred. I did the same subject for this so that something in the piece would be consistent. (quote)
3. I went back to displaying the differences, based on feedback but also to stay relevant to the theme. I did this by drawing fine art associated words in a gallery space compared to design words in a book. This was based on one of my essay quotes, ‘the separation of the arts into categories of ‘higher’ and ‘lower’ (pottery is low art, sculpture isn’t)’ (Dormer, 1997, p.19).
4. I was suggested an idea to make a detailed piece of work and them make it gradually simpler which reminded me of the bulls by Picasso. I did research on and used Picasso’s work to inform my own work in the journal. This piece was an effective way to place fine art and design in the same piece, which was his intention. I drew this to get a feel for how I should gradually take information away.
5. I made my own version based on Picasso’s work with the subject being a portrait of Bruno Munari made of lines and removed them in each piece until the most basic information was left. I chose Munari as his quote from his book Design as Art has been a key reference for my essays and research.
6. I researched the academicians that founded the royal academy and drew them in my journal against bold lines. I included them because it was traditionally the place of success in fine art and the lines overlapped the portrait showing that there’s a battle between the two with simplistic design styles dominating the page.
7. I did a lot of research into Postmodernism, specifically graphic design to analyse in my essays and for the style and layout of some journal pages.
8. For the portrait of an academician towards the end of the journal I chose a pop art colourful style for the piece to contrast to traditional processes and techniques. I kept coming back to art based on the main theme so that I wouldn’t go off track.
9. ‘the relation between what we see and what we know is never settled’ (Berger, 1972, p.7). I made pages based on this quote because I found it really interesting as its something that happens to everyone and people often won’t even notice that they do it. I tried making art that didn’t really fall into a category and it is up to the person who looks at it what they would call it.
10. ‘Representations of the human face and form are not about to go away’ (Clubbe, 2016, p. 230). I came across this quote in a book about portraits and how the traditional values of these are still relevant today, although it was an argument against my essays I found it interesting to make art about this and still include portrait work in the journal.
