Heath Ledger Response-2

Below are my 4 final responses to Heath Ledger’s art/photography. I used the photos which I took and edited in my previous blog post on Ledger. In the end I didn’t end up using all my photos because some weren’t that interesting or good and I didn’t have time to think of an idea of what to create on them, etc. The materials I used for these were tubed water-colour paint, acrylic paint, white ink and a piece of wood which I used to scratch into the pieces.

This is my favourite out of all of my responses, as it uses the most materials/colours and really stands out. I took inspiration from Ledger’s version of his girlfriend. I used the same dots of paint on the face and on the wall. I also filled in the background part in solid colour like he did. Another thing I took from heath was the white lines/scratches which I’ve used in almost all of my responses.
Materials:
pink border – pink stabilo highlighter
green dots – sap green tubed water-colour paint
red splats – cadmium red acrylic paint
yellow background – yellow acrylic paint
white lines – uni-ball white pen
