Sketches from Portraiture after Photography

[image_with_animation image_url=”14063″ alignment=”center” animation=”None” box_shadow=”none” max_width=”100%”] There was so much interesting material produced in day one of this two day workshop “Portraiture After Photography” I wanted to share it. The morning slideshow focused on photography as a tool for abstraction, launching from an in depth look at multi exposure photographs taken by John Deakin and related paintings by Francis Bacon.

The sketches below are all the results of four students, one teacher (me), phone cameras, a simple ink jet printer, photo paper (mostly reversed), simple green, and rubbing alcohol.
