So this was a busy week. We had a mid-review today and were required to rethink how we represent our work. We've been looking at hand-tinted photography after thinking about how Karl Blossfeldt composes his photographs. This is allegorical to the way we're making our flower pieces. The plastic is totally clear, and while it picks up form and texture from the milled form, it has no color. So whatever colors we want will be hand-applied onto a surface that has character but little contrast (yes, I know that old b&w photos had lots of contrast, but work with me here). So with this intro (and please keep in mind that we haven't had time to apply this kind of thinking) here are our boards. The text is on there, cuz I'm tired.
