Since I was struggling with the process for the background, and what I wanted it to look like, I started to sketch out any ideas I'd had, inspired by my initial research. I expanded on the drawing I initially had of just one side of my face, to the entire piece, so I could clearly plan out what I wanted. Taken the colour research I'd looked into, I also created a colour palette to sort of follow for each side.
Keeping to the fox theme I'd gone through for my entire research, I chose to expand upon my original piece of work I did at the beginning of the project. In the same sort of style as my face, I added the background into it as a rough idea of what I waned the final piece to look like - sort of to plan out colour and shape. Because my first background idea didn't go well (or look what I envisioned) I chose to go back and look at my research and then respond to it:
I'm quite happy with how the fox turned out, the colour contrast shows also what I'm thinking about doing for my final piece, with the blue being the opposite of the yellow & pink. I added some 3d elements to my work to imply depth to the piece, which at first I wasn't sure about, but after editing and create a cohesive colour scheme I actually came to like. This led me onto the inspiration to start developing my background and making something that I was now, 100% happy with.
