Preparing to submit 1.4
Phew, you have completed your paintings BUT this does not mean you are ready to submit.
There are CRITICAL decisions to be made at this point regarding the layout of your work!
REMEMBER it does not have to be put on the board in the order it was made. YOU need to make decisions-edit, select and order your work- in series that demonstrate how your ideas have changed and developed to make a systematic body of work
Layout your work initially and analyse your work in relation to the following questions.
Does the work look cohesive in terms of colour palette or art conventions?
have you successfully conveyed your Kaupapa?
is your work arranged with your most successful and largest work at the bottom?
If you answer no to any of these or even.. a maybe... then something needs to change.
You may have other work that would be better suited to include so swap some over
You may need to rework some pieces to add elements.
layering prints, drawing on top, collage or drawing release is a good way to easily brings elements across into works
Perhaps you need to collage some other works together or cut up parts and rearrange as a grid/cut out shape
or sometimes you just have to make a whole new artwork.
