Painting Colour Onto Black And White Images


For this task we were asked to take a head to toe, portrait of each other or someone random. We then had to change the image into black and white and print it off.

We were then left to paint to our hearts content, adding colour to the image. Once the painting had dried we scanned the image into the macs.

I feel this is quite a good way of enhancing certain aspect of the image to hide blemishes. For example, my model had a bright green lanyard on, which i hadn't noticed until I uploaded my image onto the mac. I painted pieces around the lanyard, in bright colours, which has as a result almost made the lanyard invisible to the eye as the bright colours of the paint take your eye away from the spot it is.

Also outlining the neck of her top, overlapping the lanyard, has also made it appear as though she wasn't wearing it.
