In this workshop, we were asked to create our own Atlas of Colour, which would be a personal and subjective response to the notion of colour. Various exercises were incorporated into this book, displaying our recent knowledge of colour.
Purple was the primary colour and focus of my atlas, as it held a personal connection with me.
This particular painting incorporated the various colours that were associated with different aspects. These colours reflect a personal relationship that is formed between a colour and an aspect of life.
This map also emphasises the notion of personal relationships that exist with individuals, through the association with particular events and stages throughout life. This is in some way a personal map that links colour to various stages throughout my life.
This image is a representation of our favourite object. I has chosen a purple notebook because its was an object that relfected the colour of my choice and it was a reocurring aspect of my life - it was continuously used for different purposes. Hence, it is a representation of the notion of a reocurring colour scheme throughout the atlas.
This was a guoache painting that was created to show the use of colour in an architectural structure in a contrasting manner. For example, the use of orange for the main focus of the building which is juxtaposed against the blue sky.
49 Veils - This was an exercise based upon the experience of the stained glass windows. In this artwork, I was able to experiment with a different medium; water colour paints. This created a different effect; light in visual weight with a prominent distinction of colour.
In this exercise, we were able to experiment with different tonal keys; adjusting the tone through the addition of black or white. This task created a variation in the shades of colour, which is an important aspect considered in colour theory.
