Sampling - Joby Carter - Replication of Existing Artwork

Replication

For this piece I will attempt to replicate an existing piece of sign writing. The piece is one of the names from Harry Lee's Steam Yachts

The piece was painted in acrylics starting with a cream base coat then the black outline of the letters were created with fine liner and the blue and gold applied before adding the red shadowing. I think this is an accurate representation of the piece considering it is in a much smaller scale. It has allowed me to gain an understanding of how the writing is constructed and how to create complex fonts. The piece really captures the ideas of brightness and attractiveness that are a common theme throughout the fair

. From here i will go on to develop my own pieces and fonts developing different colour combinations for them
