Lucia, Shin & Moises devlopment.
For this development I produced 6 different pieces each being developed from the previous one. I also photocopied the original one to save time. For this development I also added in zentangle.
Method:
- First you need to gather your equipment. Pen, watercolours, oil pastels, pastels and acrylic paint.
- The first thing I did was, I drew out a simple line drawing of my second idea, keeping in tac the facial features, I then used Moises technique and layered up my drawing with different facial line images, removing the facial features.
- Next I went back over the main lines to make them bolder, so they could stand out. I went over the different faces and the hats.
- For my second piece I added in the watercolour, I used the same technique as in my previous lucia post. The difference to this was I added in the hair using a brown wash to just highlight the section of hair. I also added zentangle to the dog ears similar to my zentangle post, using a pen.
- After that I produced my third piece, I repeated steps 1-4. I also changed the collar of the colour to a pastel purple, simply because I was experimenting with colour. After that I used pastels to create the same type of halo effect I used on my Shin and Lucia experiment. I chose to do opposite colours, black and white against orange and yellow.
- After that I produced my fouth piece, This one was much simpler then the rest. I followed steps 1-4 except I didn't add the hair because I think it looks better without it.
- Then I photocopied my fourth piece to save me time.
- For my fifth piece using the photocopy of my third one, I added oil pastels to the outer edge of the face, it gave a more crisp cut feeling compared to the soft pastel.
- Then for my sixth piece I repeated step 8. I also added acrylic paint. I used Shin's style on the hair (layering the paint using short brush strokes) For this I painted across the different sections of hair to make them stand out, so each face would look more prominent. But this didn't have the desired effect.
- For my seventh and final piece I didn't add the oil pastels this time, instead I focused on the hair instead, I only painted the one hair section this time, I painted the hair that belonged to the starting face. I used Shin's style short brush strokes, using multicoloured murky colours.
- Wash out the paintbrushes and clean up your work surface.
- Clean up after you're finished.
- If paint or oil pastels get into your eyes wash them out straight away.
- Don't eat when you're working,
