Experiment with mixed media Part 2

I thought In case someone didn’t like my first composition, I added one more experiment. Though I'm extremely late with my second assignment (I wanted to complete it last week) I decided to focus more on quality than on a speed).

So, once upon a time I decided to prepare chicken. Not because I like to cook I really don’t, but because it is easy)))) After whole chicken was on a plate, together with combination of light, it was an amazing still-life. Colour, shapes, light, idea...

Last recommendation of my tutor was to tray to integrate photos, cuttings, scraps, so I was a good chance.

First drawing was quite simple in approach – I used oil pastel, shiny black acrylic colour, pencil and golden acrylic. Middle part was taken out and depicted with colour and all surroundings were glued back. Size is A4.


Did I say before in my blog that – oil pastel not a my material? Yes, I did, but never say never). Now I’m working mainly with oil pastel. I understood if question about a colour I like to see “juicy” and “volume” hues. At the end, paper underneath the golden acrylic became wavy.




Second drawing was realized other way around – the middle part used as a photo and environment became a task for me.


Long time ago I saw one of the spam video somewhere how Chinese lady uses filament soaked in ink as a drawing tool. I saw this technique as a solution for patterns on the walls. Plus, I thought frottage of the bucket, which I trained earlier, can help me gather all objects together and this texture looks like skin of the chicken). Size is 2 times A4.


Result is a “Chicken on the stage with the accompaniment”.
