After completing a book full of sketches and finding two artists that I really liked, I felt that I had done enough observational drawings and could move onto different mediums. I decided that I was going to look at the way my artist made marks within their work and study the techniques that they had used. I began with just finger painting, I feel that this method of painting creates smoother marks that it does when using a brush. When looking closely at Richter's work I could see both texture and the beautiful smooth consistency created when two contrasted colours were mixed together. So, for this piece I decided to use black and white. Two completely contrasting tones. Overall, I feel that this piece has gone well, I was able to the create similar effect Richter does when painting. However, I felt that this page looked a bit basic therefore I decided to tear some of the page out, to create the texture that Richter is known so well for. To concluded, I feel that this piece went well.
