Final Project Evaluation


Project Evaluation:
Contemporary Landscapes and the Urban Environment

Knowing that the final project of the year was going to be the most important, I was always sure that 'Contemporary Landscapes and the Urban Environment' was going to be the theme. Feedback from tutors and successful work in earlier projects proved that this was the most appropriate of choices.

 

I would say my main strength was developing and producing work from the artist research I collected. I recreated the artist's work to familiarise myself with their techniques before working from my own photographs and observation. In some areas of the project, mainly with my final painting, I found that qualities from different artists have been combined to create a mixed-media piece that is highly successful.

 
Not everything went to plan and there were some challenges along the way. The main reason for this, I would say, is time management. I could have maybe planned my time a little better to ensure all work was completed in a certain time limit but with some of my work, it took longer to complete than I thought it would.


Overall, I’m pleased with how this project progressed. Although there could have been more, I am proud of the work I have produced and I think I’ve done well at meeting my original aims. At the exhibition, I received positive feedback from both tutors and fellow students which made me realise the choices I made throughout the project resulted in a successful sketchbook of work and a visually interesting exhibition.
