Final piece
So some days ago I was contacted by a client to make an art portrait which she wanted to gift someone. Before I started work, I was already thinking how I will make this portrait whether to make it landscape or seascape view, because of how the nature of the reference photo.
So I took a bold step and proceeded to making a landscape portrait on a 16/20 inches size portrait.
Below are the materials used
- Pelican Paper
- General Charcoal Pencil
- Mono eraser
- Graphite pencil
- Charcoal dust
- Tissue paper
- Brushes
- Blending stump
Below is the progress shot of the final piece posted earlier.
Beginning with the head
continuing with the head
Done with the face
done with the face and clothe, now proceeding to making the background
To make the background I use a cellotape to creat a boarder so the Shading stays on in the enclosure created by the tape, then I start Shading and blending.
Final piece framed.
Thank you for looking through my blog. Stay tuned for my next piece.
