'Present and Future' Hands

Hi there Bloggers,
Once again we are taking the opportunity to share information. This time you visited my space to gleamed a better understanding of my drawings of my 'present and future' hands to represent my present and future state in the Diploma in Education programme. Here is my explanation:


THE LEFT HAND: PRESENT STATE
The texture used was one that gave the impression of something being rough, because at that time I felt that the programme was really rough! I used the colours black and blue to depict how hard I found the programme to be at that time; and the colour yellow was used inbetween the black and blue to depict the strands of hope or sunshine I am anticipating coming out of the programme. The red stars on my finger tips represented how my heart was pulsating because my hand was black and blue (you know you are able to feel your pulse in your finger tips).

THE RIGHT HAND: FUTURE STATE
The texture used was one that gave the impression of something smooth. I honestly felt that once I have successfully completed the programme (in the future) things will run smoothly. I used the colour yellow to depict the bits of hope and sunshine I felt in the past will truly become a reality and my life, with my Diploma, will be full of sunshine. The green arrows depicted my positive growth (green to represent fullness of life) which will be felt in my finger tips and so indicate that my heart will not be pulsaring anyone but will be feed a constant flow of positive feelings (nutrition for the soul). Hence, I see the experiences in the Diploma programme as vital knowledge, skills, values and attitudes any prospective Head of Department/Vice-Principal/Principal ought to acquire.
