Painting panel

Painting panel

    In CyberARTS, we created large-scale paintings using house paint in preparation for our self-portraits that we'll be painting based off of our digital self-portraits (you can find my digital self-portrait on this blog).
   
    For this assignment we had to incorporate a gradient background, 6 techniques, and a blended sphere. My 6 techniques were: dry brushing, stencilling, mark-making, wash, bold lines, scraffito, and an additional technique that I added in (splatter), making it a grand total of 7 techniques.
   
    In conclusion, this assignment was one of my favourites to perform (painting is a hobby of mine, so I naturally latched onto this assignment with joy), and I hope my self-portrait can turn out as beautifully as this painting turned out.
