Summer Project
Characters
The 3 characters I chose from this project are from the national portrait gallery. Many of the characters are royalty or of some important which explains their presents in the national gallery as you would have been required to be at a certain level of wealth to afford such commissions. The characters I changed them into were far off. I began by sketching 4 characters using thumbnail sketches. I then narrowed them down to the top 3 seen below. William Shakespeare was a bisexual poet so it only made sense for him to live in hackney in this day and age. I equipped him with a pride flag to show him being out and proud about his sexuality , something he could have not been able to do back then. I also gave him a hair transplant from Turkey as cosmetic procedures are far more common now . The second is lady Anne with her 3 children . The inspiration was a council estate mother as its a mockery of the affordability of cost of living, especially a single mother with 3 children. The third and final was the prince of Wales, this design came from intuition. I imagine him being quite snobby and only raves about the exclusive gentleman clubs he attends with his father .
Anne lady pope with her children
William shakespeare
Prince of Wales
Locations
The 3 locations chosen were rather random, as random at the decision to choose the characters above. The first is a gentleman's cub which is Inspired by the character made out of the price of Wales. The second is a picture I had taken on the tube and I thought of playing around with style and composition and The third was a Kennington park near my house about going for my jogs in summer.
