Drawing in thread and glue have been pretty focal for me so far in this project, I use time as a tool when drawing as I set myself time limits, this means I am giving myself limitations which in turns makes for a more interesting piece. Over easter I did a lot of drawings and now I am developing them further. The initial thread and glue drawings were very effective and I really enjoyed that making process but the over all look of a piece was quite messy as the glue would pick up dust etc. By photo copying the drawings I was able to keep the thread line quality as it translated very well but to leave the glue behind.This means I could turn it into a flat image and re-produce my work to experiment and play with. I copied my thread drawings on to card and then decided it was time to bring colour into them and give them a bit of personality. After doing a series of drawings in various colours I decided to go with two colour palettes and base all further colour variations for my drawing in them.
Below is a sample of some of these colour drawings in the selected colour palettes.
