By doing this, this will keep the focal point on the detail of the make-up and hair and I also plan on keeping the book with all black backgrounds – to make the colour of each design really stand out.

Thru studying different mediums of art, I intend of using the face as my canvas and to design art onto the skin. These images portray the sort of styles I have been influenced mainly and what I am aiming to create throughout my book –
