SKILLS SHOW

For the past two days I have been involved in the skills show at BSDC, where I held a small live drawing event alongside my peer who was doing a 'have a go' mono print workshop.

During the course of the two days I made illustrations of 4 women, each representing different seasons with their unique lip colours - spring, summer, autumn, and winter. For the portraits I used pencils and colouring pencils (specifically for the lips), I chose the models from the internet and decided to draw them on A3 size.

The process of the drawings was great, I spent a lot of time on the actual drawings even though I could have worked faster I didn't on purpose because I wanted people to be able to see my skills.

On the tuesday we had school groups coming around to see the work which was a great turnout because they were really impressed by my work I have to say the second day was a little disappointing as we didn't get many people however I did get a commission out of the show and also many positive comments which always boost my confidence.
