Hall of the unfamous
3Ba Graphic Design — Illustration
For this assignment we had to find 5 archetypes which we use to describe people. For example a wallflower or a blabber. We all know what this means, but not how such a person looks like. So our task was to think of 5 archetypes, and explain them by a portrait.
The words I've chosen are:
hair-splitter (in Dutch: scherpslijper, literally: sharp-grinder),
chaplain (in Dutch: veldprediker, literally: field-preacher),
intruder (in Dutch: geveltoerist, literally: façade-tourist),
gobbler
drunk (in Dutch: zuipschuit, literally: drink-vessel).
Each name had to be visualized without using a computer or any other digital aid, and each in another technique.
Hair-splitter: dry acrylic on black paper.
Chaplain: dry gouache.
Intruder: aquarelle, finished with pencil.
Gobbler: dry oil-paint on black paper.
