Final response to the study of Chuck Close (second portrait)


Inspiration for this piece also came from Chuck Close, however I followed his unique, pixelated style of painting, and produced my own version of his techniques. I used thick blobs of acrylic colour to get an almost 3D texture from the paint, making light and colour reflect better from the surface. Close paints in circular repeating patterns, cleverly creating a pixelated image of the subject matter. I incorporated his techniques within this piece.
