Reflecting
on Summer work I realised choosing a context is better decided at the end of a
project - this has taken me away from Children's clothing, which was
restrictive. I am now forcing myself to read my own research to professionalise
and contextualise my textiles samples.
Retracing
back through my research of un-appreciated beauty, to my photographs of tree
bark, and noticing the decay and colours. I decided to spend the week producing
various yarn wrappings from carefully selected threads to extract the colours
and textures.

Late this
week I visited the Jackson Pollock exhibition,
at the TATE Liverpool, to help influence my drawings. This was a real insight
into colour combinations and how texture can be created through layers of
paint. I began to understand how painting can bond a relationship with the
viewer, and that beauty is everywhere - lost or found.
