This illustration project is in the theme of Bahamian Beauty Queens. The Beauty Queens I have selected for this theme were in order:
- Geena Thompson (Miss Bahamas World 2017)
- Celeste Marshall (Miss Bahamas Universe 2012)
- Nyah Bandelier (Miss Bahamas World 2019)
My medium of choice for this project was digital art.
For my creative process, I had originally wanted to illustrate full body illustrations of each of the models. But after reconsideration, I had decided to settle to only focus on a head shot of each of the models.
My method of design was to construct my first sketches hand drawn to give my art a more defined skeleton when i transfer it to digital art. With my final attempt, I had decided to make some more improvements by fixing line art and adding tonal value to each of the pieces.
