I love the colour red, it has so much energy and passion. So I couldn't resist the invitation from @everlove to play with her latest image.
When I turned @everlove's image on the side I could see an outline of a portrait in the grass. I followed these lines on the computer with a paint brush tool until I was happy with the shape of the portrait. I then printed out the portrait and used it as a template for the next stage.
The red grass reminded me of the dyed red yarns hanging from the roofs to dry in Marrakech, Morocco. So I decided to make my portrait out of threads.
I scanned the image and layered it back over @everloves image, keeping some of the original computer drawn details. My original drawing had feminine qualities but when I developed it with thread I felt it took on a more masculine quality, so I called the piece Man of Thread.
I love it! Great job! The face behind the red...
This is an amazing collaboration. Beautiful work.
Very beautiful work lady @opheliafu, with the quality that characterizes it, congratulations
Thank you for your continued support of my work.
Nice imagery @opheliafu, glad I found your blog... like the use of the .gif as well, I use the YouTube a bit on mine.
Thank you, I do like to make gif's to use in my posts to express my ideas or show the progression of work.
Nice work! I'm going to have a go at these red grasses tonight... :)
Very nice! Well done!
Gorgeous colour :)
It is a beautiful colour that @everlove has captured.
