Hi everyone, happy sunday to you all. Todays mass was inspiring and educational. So after mass today I created an art work relating to #beauty and #culture. The medium that was used in creating this art piece was caving. I would share pictures with you all and show the steps I took in creating the artwork. This arts is called STENCIL ARTS.
The materials I used in achieving this piece of art are;
- Embossed paper.
- Sugar paper.
- Tracing paper.
- Scissors.
- A ball pen (black preferably)
- A pencil.
- A cutter knife or Reznor blade.
- Your reference printed out.
- Paper gum.
This is are the most important materials been used to create the STENCIL PAPER ARTS.
Your work space should have;
- A drawing board.
- A bord stand.
- A chair.
#References been used to create this art work I do are Google images, Photography images and quick sketch images. It all depends of what I am inspired with and how I want to express myself through the arts.
STEPS.
- Get your reference drawn on a piece of paper, just to see the visble way of producing the art or you can get references from google by searching for stencil images or silhouette images.
- For beginners or you have a difficulty in drawing. Get a tracing paper and enlarge the image you want to create depending on the size you want. This is achieved on a laptop or phone " I make use of Photoshop to resize my image and outline them". Then you print it out on the tracing paper.
- Cut out the paper you want to use for your background and following the tracing paper, draw the outlines you want to use on each paper and ""re-trance it with pencil just to get a clear image on the paper(this is optional)"".
- Using the cutter knife; cut out each paper following the way it has been drawn on the paper after the use of the tracing paper.
- Arrange the cut out paper on thr background to see the piece that is missing out and to confirm you are on the right procedure.
- Neatly apply the paper gum at the back of the paper been used and place it on the background relating to the outline of the reference.
- After the placement and easing the drawing outlines you can make use of the ball pen to make your signature at the low right coner of the art work.
Picture roll.
This is the reference of the art work and was gotten from Google search engine.
This is am image of my work space after drawing and caving out the artwork.
The papar you see below is a glossy paper and I used it has the background of the art work.
This was when I arranged all the paper I caved out on the glossy paper (the background).
Then this is the end result.
And this is what I do.
THANK YOU.
