Experimentation with Matarials

Experimentation on the pre-made collaged and tea ‘n’ coffee surfaces …

Pencil and Watercolour
Just oil pastel
I loved this!
Biro and highlighter and candle wax along the edges. My highlighters were just there in front of me when I was already drawing with the pen, along with the candle burning, so thats when this idea came as I went along.
I loved this design with the highlighters.
Here I attached things I found outside to the ends of pencils and dipped them into acrylic paint and tried painting with them as I wanted different media and tools to use.

This is just a small experiment with oil pastels. I created the background with collaged bits of newspaper and envelopes then sprinkled coffee on it. I actually used a cleaning product to spray on the coffee because I didn’t have an empty spray bottle! But the bubbles made a nice effect. I thought the soft pastels was a nice contrast to the crispy surface. My project theme is urban and multi-culture, thats why I’ve chosen this drawing.
