Mixed Media Portrait Study
As part of my daily drawing routine I wanted to dive deeper into portrait study, simplification and stylisation through repetition of the same subject.
Initial Reference Image
Ball Point Pen Study
First I wanted to study the portrait by analysing the details. Simplifying the character I also started to slightly stylise it.
Digital Render
The second path was the attempt to push proportions of the character and try to bring more stylisation into the portrait. I also wanted to experiment with colours, textures and render styles.
Acrylic Painting
The next experiment was to see how the medium dictates the stylisation and design of the character.
