Creating A Texture

In this task, we were told to make any piece of art or design that was by the use of natural objects and to refer to how this materials can be used or where the are found. Due to it being natural, we had to use things like sand, flowers, grass, etc.

So for my design, i chose to use sand. I was going to use this sand to come out with a word which was 'desert' why i chose this was because sand is also found in the desert and is also a natural man made artifact so hence i chose that. 

To apply this design, i used glue and piece of paper that i simply wrote down the word desert with the glue and then i applied the sand on top of the glue so that the particles can easily fall/stick onto the paper. There after i added some leaves that i found to add more ''design' to my work, because you rarely find vegetation in the desert, i designed to make vegetation thats found in the desert and that was a cactus. So i simply applied glue and then made the shape of a cactus with the leaves i found. I also added the bush feel to it by finding little dry grass to represent more of the desert feel.

With that being the design i had come out with. I would have come up with a more refined design to show more and maybe have an invert of the sand by having the desert word be left out and the whole place be filled with sand but due to the soggy sand that i found, that was quite for me to complete as well as have having different shades of sand like a desert hence this design for me was one that would show the idea of what was really out there.
