Description
This was the "final" for my Theory of Knowledge class. Quite amusingly, I only spent about 15 seconds presenting something that took me 5 hours to do.It's supposed to mean something, but I don't really know what. Probably about how we actually know nothing and life is meaningless and think about this and think about that before you pee and etc etc etc. God I hate that class.
Matthew Woodson was my inspiration for this.
I really want to go over the materials in detail, so here we go:
-Pencil sketch, some of which I kept and some of which I erased.
-Outline on girl's skin was inked with india ink and dip pen.
-Girl's hair was inked with india ink and brush.
-Skull inked with india ink and brush.
-Goldenrod color done in watercolor.
-Moles on girl's cheek down in brown liquid ink.
-Dotted line done in india ink and bamboo pen, along with my finger to make the smudges.
-Red sharpie for the line.
-White acrylic for touchups.
-Red stamp ink for fingerprint.
Photo refs used, and please full view.
God do I love traditional media.

GEEZ LAURRRRRAAAAA! this is amazing, the girls face is gorgeous, and the colors are beautiful. I love the moles and the contrast of the black next to the warm tones.

Interesting concept and a cool execution overall. The colours are simple and the details are minimal, but perfect to convey the point.
