'Hello Beautiful' Brief: Observational Work.

Our newest brief is for a foundation called Hello Beautiful. We've been set the task of creating an image for an exhibition in college around the principles of the Hello Beautiful foundation, raising awareness and supporting those battling breast cancer, focusing on positive thinking, empowerment, happiness and healthy living.
We started as a group with word association, then stripping it down to a few key words to focus on, I started looking at hair, growth and healthy living. I did some drawing with objects connected to these words to start me off with the project.

 

I was trying to work in limited colour palettes similar to those stated in the brief, as our final image can only be in two colours. I really like the effect the water has on the lines in the second image.

For the healthy living objects I started working with grounds, I wish I'd done a few more like this, it works well and adds something extra to the image as a whole.

I'm happy with how the majority of these turned out, but wish I'd continued with a wider variety of objects, and continued to work on grounds. I think it's a great way to generate ideas moving forward though!
