Description
The fourth drawing in the 'Fount' series, which basically drawings exploring the possibilities of capturing the movement and application of the stroke when describing light and shade. the subject being left to form in the middle where they meet. My figure drawings are usually worked up from small sketches done from life, with an intermediary drawing to work out the shapes and shading.
The textured version was created by taking the 'Fount' black and white drawing and overlaying it onto a scan of stained and tinted handmade watercolour paper, (the stained paper is predominantly greeny/brown(ish)) I then applied various layer filters in Photoshop, to revise and modify the colour. This involves duplicating the image on several layers to modify some aspect of colour and contrast.
I approach this stage as just 'fun', as it involves experimenting with combinations of filters to produce interesting effects, colours and textures' the results are very often startling and somewhat unexpected.
The original drawing is slightly larger than I normally do, it was done with compressed charcoal on 50 x 70 cm Zeichenkarton 220g/m2 drawing paper.
The original black and white drawing can be seen here...
