We cut out pieces of coloured paper into different shapes and placed them on top of a piece of white paper.

Once I realised that I had too much space, I added even smaller rectangles around from scrap paper. I added in flowers and clovers since I thought those would look nice in this, plus I wanted to include my research into flowers in this. Even though I included flowers and clovers, my main inspiration for this came from my pattern art research into Memphis Design. I was told throughout this workshop by people that it reminded them of 80&#8217;s art, which shows that it was noticable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I thought this turned out well and cutting out paper and organizing it that way to get a design helped me figure out the layout of this since I had no clue how I wanted this design to go before this. I think I might do that again if I&#8217;m struggling with how I want things to look in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/digitalspace.bradfordcollege.ac.uk\/10650991\/artist-research-lisa-congdon\/\">next page<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For this workshop, we created motifs by using paper and scissors.
