Print Revelations

I've been printing after work again this week and I've had a revelation, an epiphany moment, a dawning of realisation. I CAN'T WORK WITH PATTERN.  There I said it, it's out in the open and I haven't fallen off  planet art.

It's been a struggle these past few weeks, trying to produce something that looks abstract, pretty and meaningful all at the same time.  Success has evaded me.  There is only one more workshop left (can you feel the sense of relief?) so I will soldier on to the bitter end and complete the two pieces I'm working on - but I'm not happy...

The photographs show the prints in their current state, clearly there is more to be done, but I have no idea what.  It doesn't bode well for a beautiful finished piece does it?





















I prefer the green one, but if I'm honest, I don't like either.  Can't wait for the class to end...sorry Amy!
