The process of this project was building on top of each other. We started by creating Mark Making Grids. This allowed us to explore the various techniques using graphite, charcoal, sharpie/ink, and collage with construction paper. This gave us a choice to explore beyond and use these methods to create a diptych. For my diptych, I chose collage because it would resemble digital vector art more. This process facilitated the decision for which medium the diptych should be created in. For this diptych, in the future, I would like to create something similar but in the form of a digital art because I believe that digital art can create vector art much more efficiently than collage or other forms of methods. I would also try to use watercolor because the usage of watercolor is all a race against time. It would suit the theme of the project itself but it would be harder to create vector art.
