Medium: Graphite Pencil
This week I decided to work on graphite pencils. Initially when trying to create a concept for my concentration, I thought about celebrations. One of the celebrations outside of India that I could think of, was dia de los muertos or day of the dead in mexico. I really love intricacy and designs. This holiday is one of those holidays where all of the details need to come to life and need to come together in a perfect manner. I think I am more successful at pencil when shading compared to some other mediums like water color. When creating her face design I thought a tropical lifestyle and how I also use the beach as some sort of signature of mine. Especially Latin American beaches. Some thing I could have worked on more, was her headdress. I could have added some more detail in some areas. Background was not really a problem for me here because I took up most of the page. |
