The Human Canvas part 5 - The Butterfly Effect

So this friend of mine...she's really (REALLY) into butterflies.
The adventure continues. Back in California, mid to late January, this was perhaps a week and a half or two after doing the large, back-piece on Marci.

                                         

I worked out some ideas..she was game for any of it.
                                                        

The culprits...the chosen ones...laid out on velvet. 

Well, a velour bed spread, anyway..

So like I said...butterflies.





By the way...these Human Canvas pieces have been done in a variety of settings - in the middle of parties or faculty mixers, at someone's house - as they're getting ready to go out for the evening...even at a Dr. Who convention disco.



Court was typing...


...at her doctoral dissertation...



Seriously.

Okay...back to the drawing...


Not happy with that blue one, but...it's ink. It's there. Later, we'll show you what it looks like when you try to erase. This'll be in a future blog entitled, "The Butterfly and the Big Bruise".
 Trudging on then with a fourth...

...and fifth. This blue one I did like. The pink one also turned out well.



She's smiling. She liked them too...them TWO...THEM two...whatever.


On the photo below, the brown marks represent something that was her idea. She said, "You've done a shoulder piece...a back piece...how about a leg piece?"
"And have it wrap around to the other leg?" Ya. Definitely. Though truth be told, she had me at "leg piece".


                                                    

Add the next layer of color...



Now lay in some black...and wrap around once more.






                                                 

Viola!
