A2 TEXTILES: ANNOTATING YOUR WORK

To gain the most amount of marks your annotation should record some of your thought processes and self reflection - they should be evaluative and not just descriptive.

Erin suggests that you complete annotations per double page and should set out to explain the following:

- what am I trying to achieve here? e.g. record colours, shapes, patterns, textures, qualities of primary sources or artists work

- what media/techniques have I used? 

- how do they link to my theme and ideas?

- compare results: which have come out most successfully and why?

- if I had any problems how did I overcome them?

- what ideas do I have for improving them or developing them further? 

- add any technical notes to help remember: stitch length, yarn weight, heat press timings etc.
