A/S Fine Art

For my A/S Fine Art coursework I worked on a project titled 'Autobiography'.  I looked briefly at portraits but then decided to delve into my interests, which led to me exploring junk food (I have brilliant interests I know!). 

 Some expressive portraits, using acrylic, felt tip and oil pastel.  The orange and blue were inspired by a Chinese Sweet & Sour Pot Noodle packet!

 My final piece for the project:

This box project is based on the effects of junk food on the body, the difference between appearence and reality.  The outside is bright and fun, whereas the inside is more dramatic, containing a heart made of paper mache and the effects of food on the body.  These include high cholestoral, type 2 diabetes and hypertension.





'Stacked' was the starting point of my exam project.  I discovered Mansoor Ali's 'Dance of Democracy' at the Saatchi Gallery and took many close of photos of it to paint from.  (http://www.saatchi-gallery.co.uk/artists/ali_mansoor.htm?section_name=new_india)  This led to me combining and layering both different chairs and different media.  Here are a few of my pieces from the project:
