I was a bit frighten about this in the first, it is such a big market and I have never done anything like this before, but when I saw the videos and all the great materials we had in class this market seams to be so free and fun so I just let it go and had fun, I am sorry I didn´t had time to get my art supplies as paint and make a big canvas ( our house is on renovation and everything is upside down and my art supplies is in one of the movingboxes eh somewhere…) We had to work with our colours for our birthsigns and I am a taurus and got the colours yellow and green, we shoul also have something written or a quat on the art and this was the hardest part, I found this from Paoblo picasso: Everything you can imagin is real. I am happy about the art I made and got over my frightens about this wich is great. The next week 5 I couln´t be in due to school vacation and family vacation and well it is still summer and vacation time here in sweden and my mind is still with the Odd pods 🙂

Week 3 Childrens books, this I thought should be my favourite week but I found it really hard, as I mention before I still was with the Odd pods ( and still are!) Or assignment was to make a cover to the H.C Andersens story The snail and the rose tree. I tried to make some snail caracters and I had very fun with it, but in the end I changed my mind and did the cover you can see in the top, more like my ordinary work and I am happy whit that too. You see some of my process and some sweet snails that need to be worked on! I will have so much to draw before part B starts in october and that only feels very joyful.

Global talent search my submission

GTS2013-journal-Anna-Berger-black journal-white-Anna-Berger2013 journal-yellow-Anna-Berger2013I did it! I subbmitted to the Global talent search project. I have been working and working on this piece and at the end I submittet the Black version as I thought it would pop more and I like the pink colour in that piece. The assignment was to creat a journal cover inspiered from vintage playground and I really enjoyed the them and I also figured out that I love to have a breif and a deadline to work from, you just have to make a decision and be finished. But I still love the yellow one and maybe I should submitted the white one instead….well your mind never stops thinking 🙂 Good luck to everyone that are in this competion. I have seen so many good art pieces from my classmates in MATS and hope one of us will be in the top 50.

The great course Make art that sells I have been totaly into the last 5 weeks is ended. As always when you are so into something it is a bit empty feelings. I will try to share pictures of the projects and art that I made in these 5 weeks. Every week was a new subject and new area to explore and you got so many great tips and I have learnt so much. The first week was Bolt fabric and the inspiration was mushrooms and old pyrex caserolls. This was my final fabric collection but I still have some great drawings that I like to work further with. Hope you enjoy this and as usually I will not write much in this blog, just try to share drawings and pictures of my work and for inspirations 🙂
