Watercolour Collage

A drawing mixed with watercolours, only showing half her face to leave the rest up to the imagination.

She has nature elements in her hair seen as ‘inner beauty’ coming out, a reflection of her personality. The text in the background that’s glitched shows the unclear thoughts she has, how everything is mixing into one to become her own identity.

Step 1

Step 1 - Rough outline of a girl's lower face starting to paint in the lips

Step 2

Step 2 - adding water colour paint to the outline using pink and purple tones

Step 3

Step 3 - starting to add in the hair using the texture of a wet sponge then liquidating it

Step 4

Step 4 - using a page from the book as a background as if its her story

Step 5

Step 5 - making the text have a glitch effect so its unclear, adding some elements of nature into her hair so it starts to become more of a collage
