A coupkle days ago, I was going through a bunch of materials I had put in a map drawer years ago. I ended-up re-discovering this little gem...
It's titled, "The Orphan"... although the clothes that this young girl (or boy) is wearing certainly doesn't look like anything an "orphan" would be wearing (not to mention having a dog). Because I am still struggling with what to do with the main project I am working on right now, I decided to "play" with this image, and some of the scraps that I have laying around my primary work space. I started with this addition...
Then, I added a couple "accents"...
I felt that the semi-circle on the right was a bit too bright, so I tried some other reds. I finally found another piece that came from the same source as the red area on the left. I also shifted the vertical element slightly. I think shifting it has made it more compelling because of the interaction of the eye of the orphan, and because it "opens up" the dog's face a bit more. Not sure if this will be the final composition, but it's getting close to being done.
