Grinning
1 - 4 | Coloured pencil
The series of drawings presented as ‘Grinning’ showcases hyper-realistic depictions of lips that cleverly manipulate colour and motion. By distorting and contrasting vibrant, unconventional colours and depicting movement within the mouth as it interacts with a variety of fruits and sweets, ‘Grinning’ challenges the viewer's perception of reality. The blurred lines between what is real and what is distorted. This series conveys a playful, joyful, and eccentric ambience, subtly intertwining elements of sensuality in its artistic compositions. The strategic use of differing colour hues in varying tones is pivotal in creating the lips' abstract realism. Through the meticulous layering of coloured pencils and the manipulation of tones, a sense of depth is created, shaping the lips to appear plump and rounded. These chosen colours deliberately contrast with the items the lips hold, enhancing their vibrancy and form through the interplay of expressions and light.
