For this assignment I tried to do less planning. Usually I sketch before. When I finished this first composition I really didn't like it. Now that I have looked at it several times I really like it. I think that it is a little childish because of the construction paper and bright colors. I think that is why I initially didn't really like it. Looking at it now, the childish aspect juxtaposed with the reaching hands has assigned a new meaning to this composition. My response is to think that the hopeful, reaching hands are trying to get a childhood that is now past, but also still present in the current generation. I wonder what this would look like in grey scale.
I dont particulary like of dislike this composition. I think that it works, but it's nothing special to me. My idea was to try and create depth using geometric shapes. In my first one and two color compositions the geometric shapes were on a flat plane, so I wanted to overcome that flattness. I think that goal was a success in this composition, but it is not particularly interesting.
This this composition I wanted to continue my study of makeing a composition and then putting a screen over it to create interest. I think this isn't so much a composition, but an object. Which is fine, but I dont think that I achived the interest that I was trying to create.
