Top image- By Alyce Burton
Bottom image- By Alyce Burton
We have had nude life drawing the past couple of weeks in our drawing unit (which has been very exciting) and we have been given free range on how we want to approch this project. Here are two images that i have recently done, the top image was done using water colour and an old toothbrush and the bottom image was done with a oil pastel, solvent and water colour. The toothbrush image turned out so much better than i ever thought and is my favorite. My main idea was to use lots of different tools to see the marks they make. I experimented with ink, texter, different brushes, having brushes taped to the end of a long stick ect. I really enjoy the uncontrolled idea of the toothbrush and also having tools tapped to the end of long sticks which takes away that control and makes you relax and not worry about getting the picture perfect.
