Sounds and Virtue, Designing #lamidesignseries


Here is a design I have for you. These are special images, quoted from the verse, Jeremiah 29:11. I picked up the cam, and filmed the painting & sketching process. Featured in two colours within this video. 

The process involved applying paint, and sketching in wax. A freehand sketch of the face with text surrounding. I stylised the word “you” as the brows in this portrait. I like the concept of continuous line drawing, so I utilised elements of it for the mural. Another distinct part was the subtle metallic pencil markings on the face. I was sure to highlight the feminine features- with eyes, nose and lips in soft curved lines. Red and black are the main contrasts.

Now featuring as the cover art for my playlist. Listen to Picks #lamidesign by Lami on Soundcloud. Some tracks were used in the making process of the art, others you’ll hear in the videos.
