Sandy Art

Art on Sand Paper


Thanks to my Art Teacher, who inspired me to do such a thing last year at August 2011.
The thing really came out to look beautiful, take a look at how wonderful the texture looks, and of course, the steps on how to do it. :)

 As guessed, the base has been made with the help of sand paper.
How? Take a look.

 TO MAKE THE PAPER BASE (DAY 1):
  • Spread fevicol on the paper with a big brush.
  • after that spread sand.
  • keep it aside, dry it under the sun, or under the fan
  • don't try to do any further wrork till it dries completely.


 It took 1 day for me for the drying work.

DAY 2:
Color the base with poster colour. You can take a single colour or a combination of two or more colours as I did.
Use a big brush for the same. Allow it to dry again.
I took another day for completing the assignment.

DAY 3:
Finally I applied fevicol on it in a design pattern, and again allowed it to dry.


DAY 4:
Taking another day, I applied Fevicryl 3D art pens for colouring the pattern to get a 3D effect on it.

Abstraction



ABSTRACT ART


Abstract art has been the matter of interest for me since times immemorial. 
Greatly interested in colouring since the age of 3, I finally decided to put up my knowledge for others to know, the secret behind the colouration.

The alongside project had been made during my final summer vacations, 2012, for the classroom board decoration purpose at Oxford Senior Secondary School, Vikaspuri, New Delhi.
Now how did I do it, is what I am gonna tell you all today:

  • First of all, draw a rough outline of what type of abstract figure you want. 
  • Then, colour using lighter tone in any medium you feel you are best at (I used crayons for the purpose)
  • Shade using the darker tones at areas where you can imagine tan or shadow.
  • Add a variety of colours, contrast and mix and match.
  • Use lighter tones, and then gradually sink towards the darker one for a shady effect.
