Using thread

I decided that I wanted to look more into Conner's work. I love his use of materials, and although his work is seen as outspoken, I feel that it has a subtly about it, especially with use of material in it. I decided that I would use thread, a light materials that is very gentle and subtle. I lay it on the page in different directions and then added white paint over the top of the string. I really liked that effect created on this page, however didn't feel that I the string made enough of an impact. I know that the reason I used string was because it is subtle and delicate but the paint has almost completely covered it up. Overall, I am happy with how this piece turned out but I feel like it needs something adding to it, maybe a thicker type of material or colour.
