Hello fellow Noodlers alike, whether you’re new here or a long time reader of my very neglected blog, welcome to this new post.
I chose to post today because I have 2 in person interviews this month and I’m very nervous but excited over the new chapters in my life. One of my online interviews want a 16 page portfolio which is absolutely terrifying but today and yesterday I decided to begin a Life Study Series.
Above are the two A4 portraits which are a part of this small project/series. In my personal opinion I feel my fineliner one worked really well and it looks very vintage and dramatic. I chose pinks/purples/reds for the colouring pencil one as it’s one of my favourite palettes. I am planning in part 2 of this series to do natural colouring pencil and watercolour.
I chose not to post these on my social media because I’m fragile with these pieces. My references were me in my Binder and shorts, I wanted to study the human body okay, I didn’t feel comfortable in sharing myself near naked because I hate my body, I’ve destroyed myself mentally and physically in trying to love myself. I struggle to accept my weight is actually fine and I despise seeing myself naked. Anyways that’s too much information.
See you for part 2
-Noodle
