This artwork was guided by extended blind contour. These scribble sketches were inspirations for the faces and confusion I added to the art. Having the first scribbles messy helped shaped where I wanted my artwork to go. It's abstract and meant to be puzzling. With my work, I am trying to present different facial features scattered around the page and chaos. Blind contour is an aspect that guides a painter towards creativity. You have to be innovative and able to try new things.

This work was made out of a variety of materials. I used graphite pencils, watercolors, and crayola markers. I also used sharpie.

To create this artwork I started with my blind contour scribble. I outlined them with a sharpie. I then moved on to using graphite pencil to sketch surrounding faces and features. I outlined these in a thinner sharpie as well. Next, I used a mixture of watercolors and Crayola markers to blend and fill in the white space. This covered my entire artwork.
