she wears flowers in her hair…..

i'm taking Gillian Lee Smiths Unearth Gather Create class

in hopes of improving my drawing/painting skills. one of my

first assignments was face mapping and shading. this is my

first attempt:

as far as face mapping.. the proportions aren't correct..

although with faces really anything goes. i opened my

drawing in iColorama and changed it in Style to

Threshold to get this:

i took this to PS CS5 and used the select tool on the

black…saving it as a png (i also made a brush to use

in CS5). this allowed me to use the drawing without

including the white background.

next i opened this image of a Klimt painting in Repix:

 i used the Van Gogh brush to blur

sections of the photo ending up with this:

then on to Procreate where i added the

png of my drawing:

i cropped out the section with the face and

painted in the flower..white high lighting and

the design in the lower right corner. 

next i took it to iColorama and added the lettering

in the lower left corner and the paint drips.

i then opened it in Analog…adding the white dust

and scratches…to get the finished piece.
