Eventually I decided on just making four pieces, the fifth piece I had been experimenting with went on to become part of my sting.
"Lonely Room" was the last created out of the set of four and was also the most troublesome. At many different points I came close to giving up on this piece. It scanned it badly and no matter how much I tried to change the resolution it stayed unfocused on some sections, this even happened on my final but the print room technician helped me the best he could so it is very unnoticeable in the final.
This piece is less distorted than the others, I found it harder to make it look like a room with the strip style I had been using so instead cut shapes into the mono print textures and created a room from that. I brought in a lot more in photoshop this time around. After my crit everyone agreed that the tissue paper carpet in the centre of the piece distracted everyone from everything else.
I then scanned in more textures and created a carpet in photoshop. This works far better and I do agree that it was distracting from the piece before.
I placed a orange hue over the top and brought in my famous secret cat into the picture. The last thing to decide is where I am putting the character.
This is something I will bring up in my next lesson and hopefully gain some more opinions on the matter.
