FINAL REFLECTION

What have I learnt in this module?

Throughout the semester, I learned a lot of design principles and how to use elements creatively. Because through the web lectures, I learned a lot of design knowledge by listening to Dr Jin Chi and Dr Charles's views on everyone, which is very helpful to my artistic rhythm.

What did I enjoy most?

The last project is one that I like to work on. Because this project is that I can find the style of my work by studying the styles of other artists. I also admire Eiko Ojala’s work, because his work contains some Chinese style designs, that is, paper-cut style, but he Own style. Secondly, I also like Project 2. This is because I can share my memories with everyone and let everyone know how happy I was before

What did I not enjoy the most?

Project 1 is my least favourite because I still don’t know myself very well. I have asked many of my friends’ family members when doing this project, but everyone has different answers. One of the reasons is the tight schedule. , I was so busy going back to campus so I couldn't perform well. So I can't show my ability

What have I learnt about myself through this module?

Through this module, I learned all the design principles and used them wisely in my projects. I also cultivated a sense of design in my life. I also learned how to absorb the styles of different artists and combine them well. It's interesting.

What has changed & what has not in my learning journey?

My passion and confidence in art is the biggest difference in my learning journey. Every time I see everyone’s work, it’s very good. All that leads me to feel frustrated and sad about my own work and lack self-confidence, so I envy other people’s perfect work. After a learning journey, I have a good understanding of design and can apply design principles wisely. But for this reason, it aroused my enthusiasm. Every day before going to bed, I would watch the works of famous designers and analyze them.

The spirit of never giving up has not changed. It is precise because of this spirit that I constantly urge myself to motivate myself and find a solution to the problems I face.

What could be improved in this module?

I think most of the projects are good, but some of them still need to be improved in every detail of my work, because sometimes when I stay up late, I will become very careless, and I always make some small things that should not be wrong. mistake. I think next time I can manage my time to get enough sleep and keep paying attention to every detail.
