I’ve started my first year in Limerick School of Art and Design and so far I love it. I’m after starting my first project, titled “Movement and Motion” and it’s up to us what we want to do with it, which will be a bit of a challenge but who doesn’t love a challenge. 

So since I got this project its crazy how my mind has become focused on the movement in everyday things from the movement of trees to the movement of water to the movement a person to the movement of a person travelling, I’ve come to realise that everything moves and has its own motion.Sure even the world that we live on MOVES..!!!

So what have I narrowed this movement all down to.I’m focussing on the movement in emotions. I’ve always been fascinated on how people express their emotions, for me I express it through movement .I find it amazing how the movement in the cresses of a face can totally change a person’s emotion they are expressing. How the movement in the body can express different emotions and feelings like the movement of a hand up to your eyes can express frustration, distressed or scarred. I love how different mediums and brushstrokes can express different emotions as well. I’ve finished a painting where it’s a painting of blank emotion but by using watercolours and dripping I’ve turned it into an emotional painting. I apologise for the photograph and will put up a better one.
