workshop

In today’s workshop we worked we worked with an A3 sheet of paper. We started by cutting a hole into the paper that would fit our faces. The aim of this workshop was to create a character that would at the end look like it is our body. I decided to take a comedic attempt to this workshop and turn myself into a mermaid character. To do this a first drew out my character I then added hair, to make the character appear like it is in water I drew it going upwards. I wanted to add more detail to my hair so I drew lots of fine lines to make it look like the hair is moving in the water. I then added colour to my characters body and made it look more animated by adding scales to the tail. I like how my end design looked, I think the colours and drawing was accurate and would be able tell it is a mermaid. I think if I wanted to improve I would add some sea life characters or bubbles just to add to the scene and make it so there is more to look at in the background.
