Page 2) Development of designs

Original designs
Buffer- important - protect - paved
Bare - degraded - damage - dry - unique
Original ideas in 2 plain colours

I wanted to incorporate these 2 designs together to reflect damage and decay alongside something to reflect protection/a buffer - for the buffer I cut thick and thin strips of paper - I decided to lay these across a decorated paper randomly - I then cut out the eroded area in the centre using a scalpel then cut in to the lines using zig-zag scissors. I was initially going to place the buffer strips in straight lines but preferred them to overlap

Final design showing overlapping buffing strips. This design idea came together very quickly - it's very striking and dramatic - I feel the buffer strips work well with the design of the cut out centre
