Shel Silverstein

An American poet once quoted


“If you are a dreamer,come in. If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar, a hoper, a prayer, a magic-bean-buyer. If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire, for we have some flax-golden tales to spin. Come in! Come in!”

Portrait!


Well, I've been working on this project 'Family Matters'  and I've scavenged through heaps of old photos to create a timeline within my book. The sub topic I'm working on at this very moment is 'Portrait profile' but also I'd say it comes into the 'Old Family Photos', as I have used a couple of old photos. After gathering a picture of me from every year up till now, I chose four to redraw in different medias, colored pencil, watercolor, pen and digital painting. I then wanted to edit these on Photoshop to create a sort of montage, but I couldn't seem to find the right composition with what I have, and still haven't, but this is what I have created so far.

Watercolor

Colored Pencil

Ink Pen

Digital Painting 



And here are my finished montages, I plan on creating something with a better composition.


Low opacity to high.
One year old me - Eighteen year old me
Also to round this off, me and my class mates from Llywn y Bryn Art Foundation were pictured in the Evening Newspaper with artist Tracey Moberly on Monday, for the Tate Britain Exhibition. (Can you see me?)
