Tetris - color concepting

Carrying on with this weeks trials, tried using a few different brushstrokes alongside the colour variants. Overall it's become clear that in order for everything to fit together, composition is critical.

30cm x 45cm / wood / acrylics

Some interesting tones in there to think on.

Tetris - background expansion finish

Pretty happy with the outcome. Although a lot has to do with block composition, the mixture of tones and directions with the back strokes really does bring a new dynamic to the piece.

25.5cm x 36.4cm (B4) wood / acrylics

Expansion one

Working on a larger scale is opening up space for more messing with tones and shapes. Moving away from A4 is definitely a step in the right direction.

Experimenting one

Trying out splatter effects to emphasise movement but not really feeling it. 

Sure there's room for improvement but I'm just not feeling it.

Pixelate - Wink

Applying the pixelation during the first draft is much more difficult.

Requiring planning and awkward application of paints, it should create a unique look and a more incorporated colour scheme.
