Visual language
Following an exercise in Jane Dunnewold, Clare Benn, and Leslie Morgan's new book, Finding your own visual language, I've been cutting designs into erasers and printing them. It's fun, and so far (perhaps as a result of doing these in batches, rather than one every day) the visual language is more of the same-old same-old.
do you like the book? I'm thinking about getting it, but am concerned that it's just a rehash of all the beginner design exercises in so many other books.
ReplyDeleteWell I like it very much, the 'unfinished' texture speaks to me and so does the tension which is set up between the blocks' designs when the direction of the printing is changed - why not develop it some more?
