For this project, the idea was to practice creating a sense of space in an indoor scene without relying on perspective lines to push the images back. I have worked in digital media as a designer for years, so when I had the opportunity to try more traditional means of creating I wanted to try a wet medium. This piece was made using ink wash and my goal was to allow more gestural marks to come out of the piece because I’m used to working with very precise-looking images when working digitally.

One consistent issue was creating a dark enough scene for the background and capturing the texture of hair since the subject had very wavy curls.
