Talking Colour/ Talking Pattern – Yuan Liu
Reflection
In this unit, I made a lot of paintings related to nature. I really enjoyed exploring things like trees, mountains, flowers, and animals through my work. However, when I put all my pieces together, I noticed that many of them looked quite similar. They had the same kind of feeling and color palette, and I realized that I focused on nature in a very limited way. This made me think about how I could make my future projects more varied and interesting.
For my next project, I plan to do more research before I start painting. I want to look at different subjects, not just nature, and try to find new ideas that inspire me. I also hope to experiment with different materials and techniques so that my artworks can have more diversity and energy. By doing this, I think I can make my work feel more unique and personal.
Overall, this unit helped me understand the importance of variety in art. Even though I’m happy with what I created, I want to keep challenging myself to explore new directions and think more deeply about my themes. I believe this will help me grow and make my future artworks more creative and meaningful.
