I have been going to a local drawing class over the last few
months and we were asked to bring in images to draw. I decided to use a photo
of herdswomen in Tibet playing a game of ‘tug of war’. The image was
interesting because of their quite elaborate costumes, including their boots
and the general energy they were putting into the activity. The photo is credited
to Rhurbu Tashi/Xinhua and I think it was originally published in ‘China Today’.
This is my drawing;
The point of this is that there is a lot of fun to be had
with manipulating drawings using ipad apps and computer programmes.
If you keep
going the original idea can be stretched a long way. I mainly used IColorama ,
Snapseed and Leonardo.
I also taught myself how to scan it and then colour the drawing in on the computer.
Those results are almost enough to make me want to play with an image manipulation program.....
ReplyDeleteLove what you've done there Jackie!!
This is very interesting indeed. I use Adobe Phtoshop a lot -but know I only tap into the surface of what is possible. Your class looks most inviting!
