PINK

 

Todays work!

I think that beauty is..

Here is my 'Marylin' look-a-like image, which started out as a photograph mof myself, then altered on photoshop nd printed out on A4.

Using black ink i drew back into the image, and 'coloured' it in on photoshop.

 

Sticking to the beauty subject, i used Christina Aguilera lyrics for the fist piece, and i looked up the meaning of the word for the second image.

 

The backgrounds are made up of a drawing of the dog tooth pattern, from earlier on in my sketchbook.

These images are all made using my own original work and drawings.

You beauty!!

The work has developed now from the initial photographs, to video, now into illustration.

 

Still asking the question "What is beautiful?".

 

 

With my supplies (acetate, marker pens and paper) i have created quite alot of work

in the last week, here are the results.

 

 

 

 

Using a different image, i used my favourite tool, photoshop to erase most of the image,

 just leaving a very faint outline for me to draw back into,

and here's what came next.

 

 

 



Silver

 

The third shoot was inspired by tin foil, jewellery, cheekbones and braces..

 

Music: Austin Powers, Goldmember Soundtrack- "Evil Woman"

Chavtastic!

 

Video numero dos, using the photographs from my first amatuer beauty shoot.

Music: Austin Powers, Goldmemer Soundtrack- "Hard Knock Life"

BEAUTY or the BEAST?

 

 

New video, put together using Movie Maker, just to get the feel of how the photographs from the shoot would translate into film.

 

Music: "More Than This" by Bryan Ferry

SHINY PHOTOSHOOT!

So, for this photoshoot i wanted to portray the future, in a tacky, silly sort of way.

 

Lots of silver, white, large dark eyebrows which i've seen on the catwalk and clean lines.

 

 

Finding inspiration from Hussein Chalayan (see previous posts), Swan Lake,

Lady Gaga, the list goes on!

 

This shoot consisted of:

 

White, gold, bronze and grey eyeshadows

Black liquid eyeliner

Dark brown eyebrow powder

Tin foil

Pink lipgloss

Fake feather lashes

Nail varnishes

Mascara

Acetate

Masking tape

A variety of pens

and some Letter Stamps

 

 

This was my starting point, a tin foil hat...

 

Moving on, having the foil as a part of my hair....

 

Next I decided to change the foil into a fringe/visor..

 

I used masking tape to cover my mouth next, which meant i could still allow the pink lip to be seen...

 

The following stage amounted to me 'upping the ante', increasing the amount of make-up... 

 

I tried some gold glitter NAIL VARNISH on my LIPS next!!

DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!

 

Lashes were the next logical thing on the adgenda...

 

 

Finishing up with a variety of different mouths...
