C to Caterpillar
The name my professors gave this project was “B to Bug”, but in this case I am portraying “C to Caterpillar”. The objective of the project was to create a five step transformation visually showing the progression of both color and form by taking the two dimensional letter of the bug’s name in the bug’s complimentary color and merging it to a three-dimensional sculpted bug. The colors orange and blue were my primary contrasting colors. I blended these colors in ratios to achieve color progression. For example, the middle stage is 50% orange paint and 50% blue paint mixed, but the one below that is 75% orange paint and 25% blue paint. The final bug is a replication of the caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland. This project had a two week window for completion. The materials used were foam core, cardstock, sculpey clay, acrylic paints, gold wire, and a hot glue gun.
