The process of line drawing turned out extremely fun to me, actually. At first I did not know where to begin, but as soon as I began to follow the outlines of the faces of the people I really looked up to, (as a woman),I fell in love with the project. The lines were able to help me really focus on certain aspects of the faces of the women and decide what I wanted to deepen or darken, or keep light. By changing the length, thickness, and tone of the marks, I was able to create depth in the images. I chose to focus mainly on the faces and hair of the women, and the direction the marks flowed, rather than the whole image itself, because this process seemed to be a lot more simple this way. I used less opacity to create shadows and highlights in the already simplified image to add more depth to it too.
I, again, was confused on where to begin and what sort of decisions I wanted to make during the creative process, but I am extremely happy with how it all turned out in the end. I remembered to focus on the light-work of the marks rather than to go into to much detail because the beauty, to me, is in the simplicity of the faces themselves. Using the empty space to fill in the gaps of the faces, while also creating movement and style I believe helped strengthen the overall image and look of the artworks. In conclusion, I'm proud of how far I have advanced my skills in digital arts, and I'm very happy with how it turned out.
