As is was the last session we were left to experiment ourselves. Again, I found it a little tricky to get started this week so I started adding colour rather early on in the session. I started by running it down the page, in the way that i had previously. I rather liked the results of this but felt I could push the colour further.
I found I was focussing too much on the facial features and that this was holding me back when it came to drawing the rest of the model. As a result I clipped the face and tail from a dog in a newspaper and stuck them onto one. This added a playful element to it and allowed me to focus more on drawing the rest of it.
Having stuck the dog's face on, it was suggested that I fins a face in the newspaper and Julie then poses to fit with that. This is how I went about the two images below, which were my final ones of the session.
The captions were added at the end, with the intention of making them light-hearted and fun. I really enjoyed this approach and felt it was particularly successful; something I will experiment with and develop further in the future.
