The Face Series

Face #1, Base

This is the base image, a quick hand sketch of some facial features.

Face #2, Seeding

The addition of a floodfilled gradient background provides a nice surface/medium for further expansion.

Face #3, Smoothing, Smearing, Blending

Utilizing simple brushstrokes to develop the image, the distortion introduces a little more character into the facial features.

Face #4, FaceBall

What better way to use the previous image than to map it into a sphere.

Face #5, Jesus Redux

From the faceball yet another turn to more Jesus imagery.

Face #11, Medusae Woman

This image is not an incremental development of the rest of the series but rather an offshoot of the previous images.
