Continuing with this assignment, I played around with one other concept of her living in an underground tunnel. Used two colors in photoshop and ended up with a more graphic feeling.
After talking with Rebecca, I returned to my first concept, but created a dome behind her, probably influenced by some of the dystopian literature I've read (Under the Never Sky) and added some barbed wire and fencing to the landscape.
I ghosted the image and printed it out on watercolor paper, wet stretched the paper and then added a coat of acrylic matte medium. I then proceed to apply very light layers of colored pencil to her face, followed by another layer of matte medium to seal it. I will now continue with either acryla gouache or oil glazes.
