Drawing

Since collaging and coming to the conclusion that they aren’t as strong as my illustrations or paintings I want to return to drawing and spend some time on them. Making really detailed paintings for my final pieces to sample from, is my plan but I also want to zoom in on some of the collages and take a piece of them to edit in Photoshop and see if it works if it does not then I will print the whole portraits.

The man with glasses I have painted is my favourite and I believe my strongest, I like all the different tones that I have used however I do wish I had done the whole image and not just a section. For my next ones below I did the whole image and to my surprise I don’t think they worked as well and maybe the fact it was only section made it even stronger.

These paintings I see in high end hotels as pieces in receptions or foyers or in restaurants hung up and framed.
