Design 3.

For a third design, I experimented with a Frank Stella inspired 2D relief. I also experimented with more medias and materials. For the base of the design I thought of a basic wood based but painted black, and using the etching design made in print making, print that in top in White. To add more detail to the background, I thought of designing a modern type building made from paper but cutting into it to design the windows. A yellow Perspex would be placed under to create the effect of the light glowing through. As this design is also inspired from Renaissance buildings, I took the arch element again and framed the design with mirrored arches.

After designing this I quickly made a paper maquette using scrap pieces of paper and paint. I sprinkled white brusho inks over the top of the black paint when it was wet to create the effect of a starry night, but the ink bushed off so instead it flicked white paint on using a paint brush. 

After creating this maquette, I felt that it looked incomplete so I designed a boreder on the design sheet. As if had already stuck the paper maquette unto my sketchbook, I didn't not design a miniature sculpture of the frame.
