Experiment 3

This is my third experiment and it is based on some images I found on Pinterest of melted crayons onto a canvas frame. This experiment linked to the little red riding hood theme by the poetic nature of the experiment. Throughout the project the main plan was to create a diverse, interesting book cover instead of a plain one. The ability to create an background using modern methods and then to change them digitally matched this idea instead of just creating on with pencils, or drawing it in Photoshop as a plain background. This experiment would also give me the ability to create a background with texture, instead of a flat 2D looking one.


These are some examples which I found firstly to base my work on and to also have something to aim my final product on.

Firstly I brought a small canvas and then gathered together a small array of colours, before getting a hair dryer and starting to melt the crayons in different patterns on the canvas

These are work in progress shots of melting the different hued crayons to make an exploding type of effect.

This is the final product.
