Portrait Simplification

As part of the 'Word and Image' course, we had to sketch out a fellow classmate using the negative space and simplify the portrait. Further we had to incorporate a word apt for the person within the layout.

I sketched out V.D's side profile and incorporated the word 'halcyon' as an attribute. I handled things with great care initially, but did go ahead and make mistakes and re-did the process quite a few times.
The portrait sketching was challenging and a very good learning process. We could enhance the portrait digitally and then incorporate the word within it.


Here are a few explorations and the final outcome of the exercise.
