Still Life: Card Relief



This is a still life piece of a bottle and ornament. I made this piece by firstly doing a line drawing with pencil. When I completed this I Then used a Stanley knife to create patterns to make the piece look more intriguing. For this being my first attempt at card relief I believe this piece is quite successful. It shows signs of a good work as I have cut out precise and unique patterns which make this piece my own. The bottle is very successful and on its own I would be very pleased. However in my opinion the ornament next to it is unsuccessful. This was because I rushed it to get a finessed product, but the consequence of this was the ornament not being at the same standard as the bottle. Overall for my first attempt at card relief I am fairly pleased.

  1. annotation needs to be less descriptive and more an explanation of what worked well, the influence other artists will have on your work, things that where unsuccessful.
