Acrylic Character Study







Objective
To practice another process
To understand the differences of using a monochromatic and/or limited palette.
To potentially complete an idea for the cover or page illustrations.

Task 1
Take a character — or more than one — and research a similar looking model / portrait from the web. 
Print off a black and white version, A5 sized examples are fine.

Work on A3 cartridge paper
Your palette should consist of white and black. Use the sandwich boxes.

Using the 'general to specific' painting method, paint your portrait. 
Please don't attempt to get the detail from the start, don't draw it. 
Successful outcomes — for this method — rely upon layers of paint. These will come from you attempting and then restating.

Task 2
As above, but this time, using colour.
Your palette should consist of one red, blue and yellow with white.
