To create this piece of work, the whole group contributed. We each chose a material to work with and an object to draw. We then had a very small amount of time to start drawing our object with our chosen material. Once the time was up we moved to the next seat, and used our material to carry on with the work that was now in front of us (belonging to someone else). We kept doing this, moving around the class, and also had to use charcoal when instructed to do so. We then ended up back at our own piece of work, with contributions from each member of the class and their material.
My material was a piece of bark.
I find the work interesting as the colours could not be accurately reproduced, and so an analogous palette of blues, greens and purples has been used. The charcoal was used to outline the subject matter and add tone. This makes it a lot more visually interesting and unclear as to what the subject matter was.
Despite the limited materials I feel that the texture has been represented well, as it wasn't particularly rough but not completely smooth either.
I like how a range of marks have been used in the work by different people to show different areas and textures.
