I decided to Instagram message Manards, a fictional designer combining his background in graffiti, classical fine arts, and graphic design in his unique portfolio. I came across his work on Behance and was instantly mesmerised. I couldn’t find a lot of information about his processes and his workflow so decided to message him on instagram. He provided me a lot of useful information and I will continue to use this research to delve into the world of messy interface further. The main link between his work and our brief is that he creates his futuristic three dimensional design from a reconfiguration he creates of famous “grandmaster” paintings in the idea of them centuries ago actually being exposed to computer softwares and programmes. This is a real life example of juxtapositioning analogue and digital works. The original painting therefore being analogue and Manards design being digital. A messy interface.
To the right is a colour palette I have created colour dropping colours from of his pieces and editing them on nomad sculpt.

printing
I spent two days printing all the student prints and any print auction pieces that could not be sent directly to the artist. It took this long due to testing of the best quality paper, from colour plan, cartridge and finally deciding on gloss. And the sending them through the printer in AV store, as there is limited printers available only I could out of the fundraising team print them of as other printers had to be left to other students. It was a really informative experience understanding paper stocks and how ink lays on different ones, and will be informative for my final degree show
