I started with some Diego max drawings because it was the point where I was at with my other sketchbook research.. Using coloured pencils I realised this was one of my favourite techniques to do as the drawings stand out so much and look really bold
Developing research, I've drawn a sketch of madonna and re created it in the style of Diego max ( focusing on anatomy )
I looked mainly at 2 peices of his work and have put the pictures at the side so when people read my sketchbook they will understand why I've drawn what I have. Love this sketch! I loved experimenting and realised shading and detailing was a strong point for me, this has made me produce better drawings throughout this project and push myself more.
Here is the same drawing of madonna this time looking at completely different peice of Diego Max's work I've experimented with newspaper going over in tea bag to give it a retro vintage look like he uses in his prints & cut out wallpaper peices from a wallpaper I purchased because the butterflies and flowers reminded me of Diego Max's work. I think it works well, also a lot of annotation in my sketchbook. Slowly getting better at it.
I then used the same image one more time this time reversing what I'd just done, I drew over newspaper as his works backgrounds usually have newspaper peices in and using shading and coloured pencils I re created madonna and gave her some butterflies wings.
