Hey, it's Anna. So I got advice during the critique to use a shower squeegee for applying my wax to form the ripples below (which I'm grateful for because I tried wires and beads and newspaper and I don't have time to run through all the letters in the alphabet for all these backup plans). I haven't gotten to try the technique yet because I only just got my hands on a squeegee today.
She also suggested to get some orange in the lower half of my project and because they're true compliments, it would balance out well. I tried to bring the more important words out more in the top half and will eventually get some sort of texture up there too. I was thinking lines or waves extending outward from the center but I wanna know what you think.
What could I do to give my project a better sense of unity (and incorporate more textures)?
My suggestions at this point is to surround yourself with textures and let yourself play for 20minutes. Then you'll know which textures you want to incorporate and you get yourself thinking less and playing more. Until you play I think it'll be hard to know which will work best. Also don't be afraid to layer on top of your text..it can be subtle or a bit more mysterious to your viewer.
