Series 1: Fashion
Illustration #1
Designed with a special technique of watercolor, blending and ink. Which created rays of colors using Photoshop CS5. I started off drawing with thin outlines of the female characters. Then, I started adding details to each character, starting with hair first. After that process, i began adding water to the hair making a blending effect into the white space.
Series 1: Faces
Illustration #2
One of my favorite artist's in the entertainment industry is Marshall "Eminem" Mathers. He has a unique facial structure, which led me to make a portrait of Eminem from a particular angle. First, I looked through many references inside of magazines or internet sources. I picked the one I wanted to use and started going into the structure process. I begin drawing his eyes and nose. Then, I added some shading to start creating the lips and cheeks. I knew I wanted his face to bleed over the work, so I used lots of shading. Which gave the picture a unique dark feeling. I added some whiteout to the picture to really bring out the highlights after I finished the inking process.
