Photos of me
(sample of techniques) #1:
On this page I
have taken 4 images of myself and re-created them in different ways using a
range of different media’s. For example; on the cube face, I have used acrylic
paint to block in the colours of my face. On the Danger face, I have used
acrylic paint again but his time I have only used red. I have also used
graphite, charcoal and black pens to show off diverse techniques for shading
and tone. Next on the spiral image; this was prepared on a scraffito
background. This means that you tape the section of the page you want to use
for the background, and then you use oil pastels to colour in the section you
have taped. After this you need to mix up black acrylic paint with a little
washing up liquid. Once you have done this you just use this mixture to paint
over the oil pastels until it’s fully black. Following this, you need to find a
scratching tool and begin to scratch your image into the black paint. You will
see the colour come though and this acts as our lines. Finally the pinched
photo was not one of the best. I have used colour pencils. To make this more
experimental I have cut the fact out and in its place I have stuck black paper
in its place. I must say that colour pencils are not my strong point.

(sample of techniques) #2:
On this page I used four full images of myself
and two other images of my eye and mouth to try techniques. Using the zig-zag
image of me I have tried two techniques. These are the felt pens technique to
create a cartoony look to the image, and coloured pencils to colour in a
reflection. I did the reflection part just to fill the negative spaces I had on
the background. Next I used the brick image to create another brick image using
my face. I did this by taking the image and cutting it up into what looked like
bricks. I then glued them on to a yellow paper background and then cut around
the image leaving a boarder to help the brick effect taken outcome. The
following image I completed was the water effect image. For this image I cut
some black paper to fit the size of the image. Then I glued my image over the
top in one corner so the image can be move to see my interpretation of my
image. To create my reconstruction of myself. I used the same colours as on the
photo using coloured pencils because I think they work very well on black
paper. The effect the outcome has to the audience is that it looks realistic to
the photo. I need to work on my blending skills but other than that I think
this image turned out very good. For reflection image I copied around the photo
on to card the glued both onto the background so it seems like a reflection.
The on the card I painted it white so I had texture to draw onto. When it came
to drawing on it using a pencil I thought that the texture wasn’t bad to work
on but I think that I could have tried better to capture my features better
than I did. The other drawings I did on this page were two drawings of my mouth
and my eye. The eye image was drawn and coloured in on black paper, cut out
then glued onto he background. The mouth was done in the same way too. For both
of these images I use pencil colours to add tint to them.
