I felt that my Breadth section needed a strictly abstract composition, so I decided to experiment with watercolors on clayboard this week. I researched mainly Frankenthaler for inspiration and began by pouring watercolored-water on the surface and seeing what shapes formed from it. Then I defined and layered on top of the shapes, using watercolor crayons. I also subtracted by using scratchboard tools in some areas. The main things I focused on during this project were color and color schemes, composition, and texture (through water stains, scratch-marks, etc.). As an imaginary landscape, I think of a mountain range or something when I see this. I like this one because it adds variety to my portfolio and I took a risk in doing it.
