This is the fourth of my Open Summer Movie Themed DIY/Art Challenges! See RULES below to join!
The fourth movie in the series is "Grease" with John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John
1978 Paramount Pictures movie
Directed by: Randal Kleiser
Produced by: Robert Stigwood and Allan Carr
Screenplay by: Bronte Woodard
Based on: Grease by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey
I was inspired by this reference photo of the movie poster for Grease with Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta. I learned from my mistakes with my Elvis drawing, and decided to use the grid method (with the help of an APP to place a grid on the reference photo) to help me with my proportions. I used coloured pencils once again to do my drawing. Let me know if you think the grid helped.
Materials Used:
-Strathmore 300 series Bristol Vellum paper
-Prismacolour Portrait set coloured pencils
-Fabercastel Polychromos 12 piece set of coloured pencils
-ArtistLoft colourless blender pencil and marker
