This Is a image I took in the morning where I live. I didn't edit the photo which is why I like it as my phone's camera captured the light in a certain way which is interesting.

This is my collection for museum of colour. Arranged on a thin piece of slate I placed each of the objects in certain areas depending on there relations for example colour, texture and tone.

I finished my ceramics mold and used yellow stain and Manganese oxide. The mold came out successful but I think there should have been more oxide used to make the objects stand out more.



This is my Plaster Mold which is comprised of a range of different objects from my museum of colour collection. I wanted the objects to look natural but also emphasize them by not wiping off all the clay so there would be texture and tone.  
This is my Finished Sgraffito Bowl. I added oxide into the details of my engraving to bring out the detail which is also why I kept the rest of the bowl bright.I tried to vary the shape of pebbles and type but I think could have changed the way I drew each one

Gerald Murphy

This Oil Painting is called Library it was made 1926. To me the painting is all about composition and colour. This gives an atmosphere of a library with the dark brown light brown and green etc.  What I like about the painting is that the objects he’s added are easy recognizable even though you can’t see the whole of the object it’s so clear to the viewer as we familiarize it with what we would see in a library.  The way Murphy has composed the painting is the most standout part to me. The placement of the pillar in the middle helps separate the painting and inspire the viewer to look at it differently. 

Ceramics Collections



These our the moulds our made using clay and objects from my colour collection. 



The colour i chose was grey so i have collected pebbles, scrap metal and coins etc.
                                 



                                   

               This is a tester for my final outcome, using a technique called sgraffito to makes detail.
