I feel that Throughout this project I have developed my work
by learning new techniques and putting them into practice, I am really pleased
with all of my practical elements in terms of my weave and knit samples, my
larger drawings and a small amount of my sketchbook work. I do however feel
that my sketchbook lacks as much energy as my other practical work, in future I
will be sure to keep my sketchbook up to the same standard to guarantee a more
successful project.
During my research I chose my favourite artists, images and
colours to work from, in doing this I created drawings, paintings and samples.
I feel that I could have presented this better as I did not reflect and
evaluate all of these things, due to this I feel my sketchbook was slightly
confusing and seems hard to understand the thoughts behind what I and why I did
certain things.

I feel that I have discovered a new self confidence in terms
of using techniques and processes as I am now able to experiment much further
in all aspects of my work. I have also realised that on a personal level if I
am not thoroughly enjoying the project it reflects in work which has been an
issue in this particular project, even though it is seen as a problem I can use
this knowledge in the future and to be sure I don’t make the same mistake again.

In relation to lateral thinking I feel that this shows in
the way I have presented some of my samples. In particular my final 7 knit
samples, as when you look at them the initial reaction could be many different
things when in fact I aimed to
create a ‘knitted cityscape’. After I did this I was told to mount 2-3 pieces
per A3 page so I had to take it apart and remount them as required, because of
this I included an image of the pieces which shows how I originally wanted them.
I feel that the picture did not really compliment the better characteristics of
the pieces as a whole but it did show the essence of a cityscape rather well.
I think that I am
managing my time well in terms of getting all of my work done and handed in on
time, but unfortunately during this unit I missed a few sessions due to
hospital appointments but I do not feel that this has affected my outcome.
