First Stretch Colours, Drawings and Identification


After collecting all the information on the plants during the walk I then went through the photos, and identified and colour sampled a few from each location(the ones that interested me most). I then also added some personal notes at the bottom of each plant examining its structural and semiotic qualities.

To organise what I have found I needed something physical so a pin board seemed much the best solution. Although it soon expanded beyond the board. Perhaps this can only be done for each leg and then taken down so the next stretch can be organised.

Adobe Kuler

Aftermy first stretch of the walk I found that a lot of the rings I was noticing was colour based, so I needed a way to document the colours in a way that was fast and effective. I have decided to use Adobe Kuler.

It works through the camera of my phone and you can select the colours you want from a scene to make a colour scheme. I can then use this colour scheme in my designs by importing them into illustrator and photoshop.

I am going to use this not only to collect the colours of the landscapes but of the individual plants as well.
