In my last blog entry I introduced you to my current course project and I made a action plan for myself lets see how far I've come since then.
During then I've created a concept/mood board to help me brainstorm and experiment ideas baring in mind this concept board are in relation to the mission statement
- I apologise is you can't see everything clearly :)
this is my concept board, this collection of images focuses on the human face in relation to the word People from the mission statement and i produced 2 observational drawings of the image of a "old mans eye looking in the distance" Due to my love for the human eye I chose this image instantly but after making that hasty decision i realised that ive never drawn in a fine art way most of my previous art works have been souly anime based so I let my self in for a challenge.
To be honest i found creating shade and tone quite difficult regarding my greyscale/monochrome drawing at first i didn't really understand how to use a variety of value intensities to create shadows and mid-tones with only using a hb pencil so i went to some of my friends in AS/A2 to ask for some help and guidence due to their experience so a majority told me that "that harder you press on the paper determines how intense the mark will appear on the page".
I am quite proud of my colour drawing, i really am happy with my mark making techniques and i used the lightest colours as a base (undercoating) then worked over and over with darker colours to create shadows and highlights i chose to apply colour this way due to me looking at other art students paintings i thought it was so clever how an under painting is like a guide for an artist to then apply darker or lighter colours to create shadows and highlights so i incorparated that sae technique within my art work using whs high quality colouring pencils.
