Leonardo Da Vinci Material Studies

Leonardo Da Vinci material studies text: -For these experiments I have used fine liner as I feel that I would be able to incorporate a variety of marks and textures. -I feel that these experiments were quite successful as it creates a sense of form of the spine and ribcage sculpture within my final major piece. -I feel that the use of fine liner creates a similar sense of detail featured within the works of Leonardo Da Vinci -For these experiments I feel that these are not as successful as I wasn't able to create a sense of depth of tone as bold in contrast as I would have liked, especially compared to the fine liner experiments previously. I also feel that the marks created by the biro are not successful as they almost 'blend' together to create a muddy texture that I do not like

Final Major Illustration Piece Progress

Image
To begin this piece I have created a sketch using pencil followed by a layer of fine liner. I have chosen to use a subtle fine liner outline as opposed to the previous experiments as I felt that thick bold lines would draw the viewer's eye away from the smaller bones of the ribcage and merge together to form large areas of tone which I did not want at this stage. I debated between incorporating  a 3/4 view of a ribcage at first but I then decided upon a front facing view as the spine sculpture would be presented from the front also and I feel that this would create a more interesting piece for the viewer.  I did find the front view form to be quite difficult as the ribcages I had studied from life were almost always symmetrical so I had to keep measuring the sizes of the ribs to ensure that the piece would be symmetrical. I feel that the piece is somewhat successful at this stage as there is still small adjustments that need to added/changed to aid in the form of the...

Artist Research Leonardo Da Vinci

Image
I have chosen to study the works of  Leonardo Da Vinci as I am very inspired by the intricacy and accuracy of his anatomy studies. I feel that I would like to incorporate the use of ink within the illustration part of my final major as I have a preference for this material and it would solidify links to Leonardo Da Vinci as one of my chosen artists. I would also like to incorporate Da Vinci's use of marks such as cross-hatching and hatching exemplified especially within 'Anatomy Torso and Arms' as I am very interested in the textures created through the use  of these marks, and I feel that they are similar to that of the textures of bones that I have studied from life. After researching Da Vinci's works, I am leaning towards using a skeleton (or a specific part of a skeleton) as the subject of my illustration piece within my final major to strengthen personal links to my own spine and surgery as well as links to my chosen artists. However, I am unsure whether I would...
