In yesterdays lesson, Monday the 6th of September we looked at basic colour theory and face charts. we discussed primary and tertiary colours. Learnt the difference between Warm and cold colours and how that some colours which you would automatically assume were warm or cold can infact be the opposite to that which you first think. Monochromatic colours, chromatic colours, and finally achromatic and neutral colours.
We then watched a couple of very helpful youtube clips on how to shade and colour facecharts using make up to create different effects and experiment using different colours. here are the two face charts I did. The first I started in class to practice shading in skin and contouring. I then added eye make up and a red lipstick when I got home. The second I did at home to experiment with different styles of eye make up and using different colours. on the left hand side of the face I used Aubergine and violet eyeshadow to bring out the green in the eye with a pale pink lipgloss to create an evening look. On the right hand side I used a light brown and a grey eye shadow for a more natural daytime look I then added foundadtion to a lipgloss to create a very pale pink colour as i did not have a lipgloss in this shade.
I enjoyed learning the colour theory and how to design face charts, however I feel I need alot more practice to get the shading and shadowing correct.
