So I'm doing four b&w portraits on 11X15ish sheets of paper of the girls I live with aka my besties! haha ;)
I can't take quality pictures, and my roommates struggle to sit still very long. ;) So here are my reference photos. The idea right now is doing base values with ink, and then going over it with micron pens. Well have to see how well ink takes to the stonehenge.
and then it has to be approved by madame instructor.
Hanney boo.
Lor-bear.
emchien.
this girl just showed up, and wanted her picture taken.
what a weirdo.
2d Desgin final Project
This one is a bit complicated.
I made a group on facebook and had a bunch of people send me excerpts of old journal entires, or cheesy poems they wrote in high school, stuff like that. And then I gesso-ed 3 masonite panels (24X36). I'm currently working on the second layer...transfering the text that was sent to me onto the panels. It's tedious...first I gathered all the text, applied different fonts/sizes, and inverted it so I get the mirror image. I printed all the pages, took them to a xerox machine and made bigger copies of the text on 11 X 14 sheets of paper. Then I used wintergreen oil to get the xerox ink off the paper and onto the surface off the panel. viola! transfered text that you can read. (for the most part, though the text isn't going to be the focal point). After that, I'll paint some cheesey images of hand holding, leg crossing, and an epic kiss for the last one.
Seeing as this all has happened in my head, I'm not sure what to expect, but we'll see.
I've decided...
I should get extra credit since I'm working twice as hard as anyone else probably is.
