Breadth Piece: Tiny Me

This was taken from a photo and then with the use of carbon paper transferred onto a small canvas bored. The shapes were painted in, and this color scheme was chosen because these are my favorite colors. I thought that was appropriate since this is a self portrait of me. The last step was to add a pattern in one of the layers to add interest, then black and white contour lines were added. I really like this piece and how it turned out!

Still lifes on Regular Paper


Usually I do my still life drawings on my signature found papers background, I decided to go back a couple steps on the recommendation of Mr. Brandt. The Bottles were drawn with charcoal and the glove and ball were painted with acrylic.
