Anatomy Abstracted continued......

After drawing out my knee in many colors and ways I came up with  idea's for my final piece.
I sectioned off parts of my drawings and blew them up into larger compositions.
After drawing up in thumbnails I then sectioned off an A2 sheet of card into 4 parts.
This is the outcome below....

For each section I prepared a surface to draw on, this one was crushed tissue paper painted with emulsion.
I used pro markers and oil pastels in this drawing.  The creases showing through the drawing from the surface is very effective.  I chose the color be mainly browns and greens giving it an organic feel.


This was my monochromatic drawing, my surface was newspaper print and emulsion.  This has a more mechanical feel to it, due to the color theme.
Some aspects of the surface has also shone through this which has added affect to the finish drawing. It was done with Charcoal, white chalk and pro markers.


For this composition I painted thick, emulsion, which has given it a different texture to draw on.  I chose to use ink and oil pastels which is a new one for me. Watering the ink down, painting it over oil pastels, scratching into it.  I also used a dud pencil to draw the initial lines and scribble over various areas.
I used these mediums in my A2 drawing as I liked the affect so much.


This Piece was Chalks, I applied pro marker to define some of my lines.  The surface I prepared was masking tape and emulsion.  I chose bright contrasting colors  and blended them together in some parts and kept other parts separated. 




The above is my A2 drawing which I drew using inks and oil pastels, I also prepared the surface with emulsion.  I feel I abstracted my anatomy drawings well.  Using techniques I'm comfortable with and also experimenting with things I hadn't used before.  If I wanted I could then go on to create prints or sculptures from these drawings.  Which I may do in my specialist at some point depending on where my research takes me.
