Throughout this year I feel that I was able to learn a lot more than I anticipated. In the start it was a little hard with how much work each of us had to put in, but through time I was able to adjust to it and almost learn how to properly manage my own time (however I still need a lot more practice). I enjoyed learning the proper techniques on how to draw, starting with simple lines, to shading techniques and then perspectives. Each of these skills help me to grow as an artist and a designer, as I am now able to apply these same techniques to my digital drawings, plans, sections and collages. All the studio projects were challenging in their own way however, they each taught us important skills and knowledge as the year went on. In P2 I really enjoyed being able to study a site and seeing how important the context of a site can be when trying to implement a design. In P3, I really enjoyed how ‘hands on’ it was, being able to work with and explore different materials, how many different things a material can do and how they each interact and react with specific lighting conditions. All in all, this year was a challenging yet amazing experience and I’m really excited to see what the next few years will surprise me with.
