In the lesson, Agatha, Demi, Sophie and I experimented with possible make up ideas for my main character, India. We decided that using an eye shadow formula would be easier than waxy, water-resistant, oil based make up as it would be easier to blend into a sheer look therefore making it appear realistic, believable to be bruises.
I noticed that if we blended colours such as turquoise and neon, blue with earthier tones such as mustard yellow/brown, mossy green and light purple it creates a bruise that has purple undertones, making it appear that, India, has been recently bruised by abuse. I realised that we could do this layering of colours (and blending out to a sheer wash of colours) around the eyes, on the neck, arms and under the chin or across the cheeks.
I made this photo collage on PicMonkey, an online photo collage free software, to present the pictures I took in class.
I like the way that you have presented this as a collage. I am impressed by the fact that you have researched and found a useful tool to solve a problem. Well done, Kate.
