cave painting







scanned painting
I used splotchy gouache to resemble a rustic cave painted aesthetic 
bristley paintbrush and minimal water
I also started putting water on areas of paint and daubing it with tissue to make a patchy effect similar to the stained pigment on the bone bowls


Adjusted levels in photoshop and i added highlights and shadows with a lightly textured digital brush



pastel drawings of rocks
they looked rather undefined and potato-like


so I added angular lines in a scratchy photoshop brush
they were black lines initially but that looked too harsh so I made them lighter colours that compliment the rock colours



same method as previous


with levels and added digital texture

im going for the whole combining analogue and digital to match the subject material of the image, and the debate of my essay 



the things assembled so far
they look rather plopped onto the page synthetically at the minute
hopefully i can solve this by adding shadows when everythings arranged and complete
we'll see
