Shadow lines from nature
Even though this may be look random, or that i am as once said overly obsessive ( which i was), i began to see lines everywhere. I began to look at lines in nature. As seen in this little twig, i was aiming to show the shadow from the wood and leaves. I also looked the lines in the leaves as they spread out from the center line.I know for sure this was a wrong path to follow so i moved away from nature lines.
Uncontrolable lines to Strict Lines
The piece to the left is dried up glue dripped on a brown piece of paper. The dried up effect of the glue is another form of making lines. I very much like this piece because the lines were not forced.
However even though this piece at the bottom is done in the same way it is however different. These lines were drawn on a cling foil and were forced. I dislike this piece because i find it unattractive. The only purpose of this was to try drawing different lines on different media.

Blobs to Lines
With a vase filled with glue mixed with black acyrlic, i used it on grey paper and flicked it on the page. The idea of doing this was to see how the glue would form by just waving my arm in a certain way. I think this piece connects to my project because i start off with a blob on a page and then i worked it into various lines.
This is same copy of the photo above however it is touched up. I have given it a green effect in order to make it more interesting and have the black line stand out more.

This Bottom paper was done in my sketchbook. I used cooking paper, and did the exact same method as i did to the ones above but made it more in a zig zag motion. Personally i think that this bottom piece strongly relates to my project because it is more defined as a proper line. Even though it has many blobs, there is still a connection from one blob to another,this is what make it a line.

Plastic box with Wires

Painting with wires
This piece to the left, i find is one of my favorites. What i did was get a whole bunch of wires and dip it into the paint and smudge it on the the cardbord paper. I like this very much because it does not look forced like there other photos do and it looks alot more chaotic and a good combination of thick and thin lines.
This piece here is origninally from the photo from above but touched up. I very much like the artistic view because the blue emphasises the chaoitc movement of lines.It also stands out alot more from the orange/brown background.
Different lines
I excuse myself for this photo being dark. but the purpose of me putting this up to only help it contrast to the piece above. This was done in pencil and drawn in a circular motion. I wanted to experiment the different types of lines.
Vibrations to Lines
Its been a while i havnt posted anything lately because i have come to the conclusion that i want to move my idea from vibration line to just lines in a set limit amount of space. I feel that using just "lines" instead of "vibrations" broadens my theme and i can experiment alot more.
Today i worked on big brush strokes trying to give a hint of Christopher Wool's style. These two photos above, are origanlly on a large piece of brown paper. What i did was stick them on the wall and make big swirley lines with a thick and thin paintbrush. I used both oil paints and acrylic, but it made no difference.
To make it more interesting ive used the two extreme colours, the top one using cold colours, and the bottom one using warm colours. I tried to experiment by using different swirly lines. However i feel i like the Orange/ red piece better because even though the colours are comforting yet there is still chaos to it.
