These doodles were created to analyze the structure of the carvings
Using wax crayon in the background with ink for the motif creates a unique, withered-like texture. The crayon resists the ink, allowing the motif to stand out while adding depth and a vintage feel to the background. This combination highlights the motif against a textured, contrasting backdrop.
Here, textures are explored solely in black and white using pen, ink, and charcoal. This limited palette emphasizes contrast and depth, with pen lines providing fine details, ink adding bold strokes, and charcoal contributing soft, smoky shading.
Watercolor combined with wax crayon and soft pastel creates unique textures and effects. The wax crayon resists the watercolor, making lines or highlights stand out, while soft pastel adds a soft, velvety layer that enhances depth..
In this exploration, I experimented with layering different mediums, including crayons, oil pastels, watercolor, and ink, to understand how they interact when combined. The goal was to see how these materials blend, contrast, and create unique textures and effects when overlaid in various combinations.
Texture is replicated by imprinting with smooth packet surfaces. Layers of chosen colors were applied to the packets, then pressed onto the surface, creating a textured, layered effect.
