WHAT IS A LINE // DESIGN EXPERIMENTS

BACKGROUND

CREATING A BACKGROUND FOR MY COLLAGE WAS QUITE ENJOYABLE. I WANTED A VARIATION OF COLOUR AND QUITE A FEW LAYERS TO PLAY AROUND WITH. WITH COLLAGAING I TEND TO USE ALOT OF GRADIENTS AND OVERLAYING OPTIONS AND I THINK WITH SO MANY LAYERS ON A BACKGROUND IT ADDS TO THIS AND EXPERIMENTATION AND VARIATION IS EASIER AS I CAN USE TEH SAME BACKGROUND AND ADD IN DIFFERNT GRADIENTS ECT.

THE IMAGE I WILL PROBABLY USE IS THE IMAGE BELOW. I FEEL THAT WITH THE COLOUR I COULD GET MORE OUT OF THE DESIGNS I WANT TO CREATE. 

IDEAS FOR COLLAGE-ING:

BLURRING IMAGES AND DUPLICATING THEM SEEMS TO WORK quite well obviously with less detailed images act.

I decided to then use a less detailed image and practice using gradients on the photograph i found from google. I conic images like this is something i would also like to use and it still incorporates line as you can see different shades of line etc. 

The use of the gradients going from pale to bright etc is quite effective and i think it looks quite good in portraying line // colour etc.
