task 6
from past experiences i have learnt that areas such as painting and in partucaulr painting of people ARENT my strong points nor is it something i feel comfortable with i decied that the material i used would represent that element of it being a portrait of ME... i began thinking of materails which represents apart of my lfe.. in particular thinking of liquids... i thought of shower gel as my mum constantly moans about the amount of shower gel we go through in our house and i often get the blame therefore i felt it made perfect sense to make use of the fact that i get blamed as this time it would actually be my fault!!
As the material it representing me i decied in the actual image just to create main features of the face i.e. eyes nose, lips etc. the only personalised feature i included was my hair, a form of a fringe...
i decied NOT to include a chin or neckline as the image remained me of an accident... as if the portrait had merged together out of blobs to form a face..
i found it of extremely difficult to create the nose... however I feel this represents me as this is an area i have always struggled with!!
originally i intended to use a paint brush as my tool but found this to react with the shower gel causing it to foam.. therefore instead i used the bottle itself moving my hand the guide it and then using my finger to shape the features!
