Final Major Project

Final Major Project

Vampires

For my final major project I was heading down the route of vampires using the different representations of the vampire to create a final major project which doesn't have any vampires just my own interpretation of them.
for example :
Lilith is said to be the storm demon so i was going to create a stormy backdrop to go with my final piece.

This is my first attempt at my vampire collage.

I also did some research into different variations of the vampire such as:

Martial Arts

After following the route of vampires I decided to travel down the route of my life progress of martial arts.

So i have captured some still shots of my training and I am attempting to drawing and paint some the pictures.

here are some of the pictures I have been taking so far:

These are just a few images from my progress in martial arts.

These are all my previous Belts coiled up 

I have created these on acetate to give an effect of    movement.

 I have drawn a picture from a photograph of myself.

 I have created a collage of all my belts so i can overlay some acetate drawing of me.

 I decided to use different medias to create the same image.

This is a rough Plan for my final major project.

I have used some black and white images to create a collage of photographs.

I have also done this picture in various media's.

My final piece plan

This is a graphics version of my final major piece I have divided the sheet up into sections the left side is for mixed media work including graphics, drawing and painting.
The top middle square is going to be a picture of me and my parents.
The right side of the piece is going to be my life progress of martial arts using my belts.
Along the bottom I am doing a sequence of one my throws.
And i plan to add an acetate portrait of myself in the middle overlaying the piece.

These are the 4 Pictures that will be included in my final piece.

FMP 

This is the start of my final piece the colours represent my belts and their order from top to bottom.

 I have scanned in and photocopied my martial arts certificates and made them smaller to put each one on the corresponding colour.
I have also added the 4 mixed graphics pieces to the left hand side of the piece.












I have added a colour wash over the certificates to blend them into the piece more.

I have drawn my self portrait on acetate.

I plan to add this to my final piece.



















I provisionally stuck all my components down so far to see what the outcome was.
Here is the outcome:
