This workshop will focus on understanding tribal designs and use them in face and bodypainting with aquacolor.
"Tribal" means from the tribe. But what tribe are we speaking of ? From Maori tattoos to Harley Davidson designs, from African adornments to Pict war paints, every style has its own graphical principles. This workshop will help you understand these principles and re-combine them for your own creative process.
You will get familiar with the graphical aspects of tribal design such as regularity, contrast, symmetry, density, power lines and recurrent patterns. We will work with a technical approach (choosing a brush according to a pattern, drawing all kind of lines and shapes, etc.) but also with an artistic approach (morphology, creativity, symbolism...)
Several exercises will allow you to place a tribal design on a face or body part, compose a tribal face-painting and design your own patterns.
