As my starting point for the unit, I wanted to dive into this unknown world of 'expressive drawing', as after-all, that is what this year is all about- risks.
Listening to the piece rather loudly, I let myself get carried away to the music, experimenting with inks, paint, and different drawing materials- sponges, combs, sticks etc. Noting the expressive proved more interesting than I had first thought. There seemed to be a sense of uncertainty, a magical black and white world of pattern- alike to the patterns that are created by the iTunes visualiser.
There are quite a lot of examples here- obviously some working better than others- but that's the chance that you have to take for expressive pieces. I love the pieces that were made with the comb teeth, they look really effective, they would look great in embroidery.
