Exploring the tribal, mysterious vibes.
These were actually VERY freeing to make, to just lay down shapes and lines in other shapes to build up abstract 'tribal' mask faces. Some I really love a few and some I am not too keen on, yet I cannot articulate what makes the successful ones better. I guess it just comes down to what shapes work nicely together in a certain arrangement. They also directly play on what was covered in the briefing and Loomis' ideas on faces; the human brain sees faces in everything, even an arrangement of shapes, when the idea of a face is only vaguely suggested.Although slightly cartoony, I do really like the figure on the right page. Theres something about his basic costume of marks that works really nicely with that particular face. I want to explore floating people more too.
