General Thoughts on Strawberry Shortcake's Spring Spectacular

Out of the three specials, I'd rank this one above The Beast of Berry Bog, but below Perfect Holiday.

Pumpkin Spice is a delight, so this special featuring her so heavily automatically gives it some points, and while I'm kind of getting tired of the influencer villain, she wouldn't be nearly as much fun if she wasn't laser-focused on her brand. Adding the Purple Pieman to the mix wasn't as inspired as it could have been, but he did have some good lines, especially when criticizing Pumpkin Spice's scheme for not being malicious enough. And he joins his fellow Piemen in bringing back his catchphrase:

Like the 2003 version, it's not the classic inflection, but I wouldn't want it to be.

I've mentioned before that I like how the specials give us different character combinations, and that holds true here, though the only really new combo we got was Huck/Lemon/Plum. Seeing Lemon trying to be the emotional core of that group was amusing, especially her physically wincing as she tried to comfort Huck. Also, Plum is really cute in CG, but his teeth took some getting used to.

The series is weakest when it focuses on Lime and Blueberry's dichotomy, and that also holds true here. Of the different groups, their scenes were the most annoying, and even the addition of Sour Grapes couldn't help that.

I am always so glad that Raspberry joined the friend group without losing her tartness, since that makes her the ideal candidate for slapping some sense into Strawberry. I was not really here for Strawberry's special-induced obsession with fame, but at least Raspberry was here to call her out on it.

Honestly, I don't think that Pumpkin Spice's comeuppance was as comeuppy as the special wanted us to think it was. There was still a lot of he said/she said (stepping in something is not enough evidence!), so I think that plenty of Pumpkin Spice's followers will believe her version of the events. She's not getting cancelled over this is all I'm saying.

Research from different sources that link to my project

A Christmas Carol

I picked A Christmas Carol as my wider world research because its set in the victorian era the same as Of Street Piemen, the two stories cover the same topics such as how the lower and upper classes are divided and the difference in life style.

In A Christmas Carol the story is based around scrooge and how the ghosts of christamas past, present and future are trying to show him how he has wronged and mistreated others, especially the cratchets family. The cratchit's family live amongst the other lower class families in London and are used to show the divide between classes.

They show this in different ways such as:

Giving him a smaller fire

Having to buy cheaper meat for Christmas dinner

Not being able to provide surgery for their dissabled son

Having to work everyday to make money

In the story Of Street Piemen it shows the life of people in the lower/middle class in the victorian era. They link because they both want to show the divide in class and how poorly the lower class is treated.

Oliver Twist

I also chose to use Oliver twist as it was a film based in Victorian England about a boy that grew up in a work house with other orphans and were put there by the upper class. However workhouses were not a good thing for the lower class as they were often unsafe and unsanitary. Oliver eventually runs away fr the workhouse and meets fagin a criminal who get orphans to pick pocket for him. He tries to get Oliver and other orphans to steal from the rich people.

The film shows how desperate the middle/lower class people were for money and support and how they had to resort to stealing and crime as they were stuck in an endless cycle of poverty. The two stories link as they both show the lives of the lower class and how they are being mistreated and can't find work, such as the piemen losing customers due to more shops opening which makes them more poor. It also shows the types of living conditions of middle and lower class had in Victorian era.

Overall I think Charles Dickens is very good at displaying the divide between classes in the victorian era as he wanted to change how people viewed the poor and wanted to change society for the better.

Interstellar

Interstellar is a film about the earth becoming an inhabital planet due to global blight and a second dust bowl. In the film there was a scientist trying to find a way to move human life to a different planet as they were unable to live on earth. They send some astronauts into a worm hole near saturn.

I chose this film because it was about exploring space for more sustainable planets in things such as worm holes. I thought it has a strong link to my black hole project as it was about exploring space and the endless parts of the universe.

2 book covers designed for street piemen and one book cover inspired by moone boy

[leowagermessageslevel3art]

Evaluation- Black Books And Black Holes.

ARTISTS WHO INSPIRED MY WORK:

Ula Einstein-

Her work involved burning shapes into pages of books although I didn't try burning any paper she had an influce in what types of shapes I cut into my pages such as small planets as they linked to black holes.

Peter Tunnay-

His work involved making pop art word art into newspapers I was inspired by the way he used type because it was very bold. I used his style in my black book to show key characters and people that told their story in the book.

Alan Kitching-

His work involved screen printing mainly making typography prints with a high amounts of layering I done trypography layering in the back of my penguin book in my own style but still with some layering elements linked to his work.

IDEAS BEHIND MY WORK:

Most of the idea behind my work is based apon the story of my black book Of Street Piemen, focusing on bringing out the story and characters of the book and the different journal accounts of the small stories. I used different typography styles and blind drawings to show these people and key words from the book. I also tried to link the theme of black hole into the book by cutting out shapes of planets and making pattern designs around constellations. Most of my work I wanted to incorporate the two together.

MATERIALS/PROCESSES I USED IN MY PROJECT:

Screen Printing-

I have used screen printing to printing my word collage about my black book onto my mixed media white boards and in my black book.

Light Box and sharpie-

I used the light box to trace and find different shades in my self portrait.

Craft Knife-

Used this alot through my project to make various book art such as cutting out holes to change what happens in the story.

Ink Blotting-

I learnt and tried this technique as my own experiment from the rorsarch inkblot test I used this idea in a double page in my black book.

Intaglio And Cardboard Prints-

With these I was able to turn previous work such as the abstract triangles into prints using a scratchy tool/craft Knife and a printing press which I stuck into my black book.

With these techniques I have used I have learnt multiple ways to create art linked to any topic.

WHAT I HAVE LEARNT FROM DRAWING SESSIONS:

From the drawing lessons I have learnt how I can make pretty much anything link to my own project because everyone has their own perception and opinion on art. I have learnt many drawing techniques such as how to blind draw and how I can work into it, how to do continuous line drawing (with rocks, metal and bones) and how I can slowly develop detail by layering continuously.

MY FAVOURITE PIECES FROM THE PROJECT THAT HAD THE MOST IMPACT:

I feel like this part of my black book was one of my most successful pieces as I was able to capture two characters of the story well and it was one of my best blind drawings. It was also the first blind drawing that I added colour to which I think worked well as it showed a difference in character.

I also think my self portrait in the style of luke Dixon, it had a big impact on my drawing as I was able to use lots of unusual shading techniques and I had to focus on minor tonal details on the face and mask which helped improve my observational skills.

INITAL OUTCOMES FOR FINAL PIECES:

At the start of my project I had many different ideas for my black book outcome such as book folding but as the project went on I decided to add alot more typography art and blind drawing linking directly to the book itself if I was to do another book outcome I would have a book where I would go back to my original idea of book folding to spell out a key word in the book or symbol this way my second approach would be very different from my first approach and show a variety of skills.

Overall, I was happy with my outcome I managed to link black holes in my black book outcome and incorporate all the different techniques I have learnt throughout my lessons and make them relevant to my topic.

WORDS THAT DESCRIBE MY BLACK BOOK:

.Journal

.Layering

.typography

.Victorian

.Variety

These words link to my project because the book is a victoriana journalist account of how people lived in London, I used words such as variety and layering because I used many techniques throughout my book many of which are typography layering/book text layering.

HOW LONG DID I SPEND ON MY OUTCOMES:

On my outcomes I mainly focused around 4-5 hours a day mainly at evening to night as I like to stay up doing art. I usually have certain days to focus on different parts of my project such as research, finishing off drawings or working into my final project. In future I would spend a bit longer thought the day to get more extra work done as I only done a few extra pieces of work.

PLACES I WORK IN AT HOME:

At home I work either on my desk in my lounge if I need alot of space to lay my work out and do stuff like painting or printing. However if I don't need a lot of room and I'm mainly doing blog work I would stay in my bedroom.

IMAGES THAT SHOW PROGRESSION IN MY BLACK BOOK/MIXED MEDIA BOARD COMPLETION:

Progression of black book-

Progression of white mix media boards-

WHAT I HAVE LEARNT FROM THIS PROJECT THAT I DIDN'T KNOW BEFORE:

One of the main techniques I have Learnt how to develop is blind drawing before this project I never really looked into or knew how to develop blind drawings but with this project I have done many blind drawings and added detail to make each one look unique. I have also learnt how to use spray paint I mainly use this to spray on stencils I made into my black book. Another technique I learnt was ink blotting before this project I only knew about this test that used ink blots from psychology lessons at school, at first it was challenging because I had to find the right paper and find out which paint worked because I didn't have ink. I watched a few YouTube tutorials that tought me what paper and paint works best and how to blot the paint where I put wet paint onto the paper then fold or use a different piece of paper to print the ink onto the other side creating an identical print.

HAVE MY INITIAL IDEAS INFLUENCED MY OUTCOMES:

My final outcome was actually very different to my out come I original wanted to do book folding and never thought of blind drawing of typography art. I mainly used techniques I learnt through this topic in my final piece. Doing my evaluation was helpful because I was able to reflect on all the creative process I have learnt and see how my ideas how developed over the course of the project. This way I can see where I still need to improve and focus on those things. Using all these new creative processes widened my ability to create unique work I explored many ways to do typography and drawing with different materials.

[leowagermessageslevel3art]

Black Book Final Piece

With my black book I tried to include a series of different art styles inspired by different artists and layering styles I came up with myself. I tried to include the black hole theme and the context of the books message in my designs for each page, such as my 2 constellations corona australis and Corvus and the journalism of the different peoples lives in London such as piemen.

On many of my book pages I cut Into the text and stuck or left loose the pages to crate an overlap in wording. I did this because I wanted to change the books meaning to link it to black holes and space as its always changing and effecting our lives, in doing this I was able to make the book my own and making it more personal.

[leowagermessageslevel3art]

Screen Printing

Exploring screen printing using prints I made by layering typography from words from my black book "Of Street Piemen". I made a few prints experimenting on different colour card with different colour paints to see what bright effects I could get mixing bright colours on darker card. I used the black paint to print onto my constellation boards as a background layer I plan to working into and connect the holes with wire to layer the constellation on top. With screen printing I had some problems when it came to lining up the prints on the boards as the tape and boarder blocked the view of the edges. But I managed to get it mostly in line as I could see through the letters on the print.

Mixed Media Board Background Design

These are my out comes to screen print my aim was to create a layered text then photocopy it and keep layering. I did this to create detail to my print. focusing on my book by Henry mayhew called the street of piemen which is a journalists view on life in London through little short journal stories. They reflect on peoples jobs mainly the poor and the struggles of competing against big shops and growing industries. This went well overall but some problems with the photocopier not printing my lettering often.
