EVALUATION - 

Overall I have enjoyed this project hugely. I feel that I have leaned many new techniques and have expanded my knowledge on both the Queen Elizabethan era and makeup behind the period of time. As a whole I felt my design came out successful as it is modern yet still has many symbolism of the era such as the pale face and eyebrows however if I was to do this project again I would branch out and explore more ways to make my design much more intriguing, eye catching and much more fascinating to look at by including some white lace eye lases or diamonds onto the face. When it came to my partners design I felt that my skills wern't shown of to their full potential as the design was simple and didn't have a lot going on and what was on didn't turn out as successful as I would have wanted. When going onto the next project I feel that I should do a lot more research into the makeup and expand my inspiration. For the next term I would like to design much more fascinating creations that are much more eye-catching , striking, dramatic and would catch the viewers attention much more. I would like to be much more confident creating designs and applying the makeup, not be afraid of how ridiculous the final outcome could turn out and just explore with props much more.

FINAL ASSESSMENT IMAGES AND REFLECTION - 

My partners design applied by myself to my partner -

 

Here is the final outcome of my partners design applied by myself. I love the way the outcome has came out overall however feel that i could have improved the blocking of the eyebrows and made the white eye shadow stand out much more however i feel that i have blended the two colours of the eyes and skin well as the colours change gradually and there are no harsh lines. I feel that this design was simple and couldnt show of my skills to my full potential as the design was very minimum. 

FINAL ASSESSMENT IMAGES AND REFLECTION - 

Within the photographs below is the final makeup look from our assessment where my design has been created on myself by my partner. I felt myself and partner worked well together as a team as we kept each other up to date whenever we had any changes of the design and had good communication when describing just how we wanted each area of the face to turn out like. I feel the development from the practice session in class time and out in our spare time my partner has achieved the look i wanted. She has improved on the eyebrows giving them more of a lift and shape. The eye makeup has become much more bold however we had difficulty preventing any creases forming whenever i blinked. The cheeks could has been toned down a lot so the look doesn't look too over powering to the viewer and the lips staying simple and toned down drawing attention to the main focus of the top half of the face.

Practice session of applying my partners makeup design -

This was the final outcome of my partners design. Instead of having a dead white skin base she wanted the base to look much more natural by mixing it with the lightest colour of foundation to give it more of  a pale skin colored look. For the eyes my partner (Rebekah) wanted the eye shadow around the eyes to be white and pale however blending softly and gradually outwards towards the edges of the face forming to big bright eyes above the eyebrow, under the eye and towards the nose. This was quite difficult at first to blend however found it much easier using a sponge to help the blending appear much more softer and gradient. 

As you can see on the lips their is a shape of a heart appeared on the center with gold lining the top line of the hearts to help bring out the shape.

The cheeks have soft contouring highlighting the natural cheek bone.

I loved the way this design hs came out however could have had something a lot more eye capturing to it by using some  white false eye lashes or diamonds onto the eyes.

Practice session of my design created on myself by my partner -

Here is my design. Instead of blocking out the eyebrows i have decided to change the colour to orange as ginger/red hair was popular within the Elizabethan era. I asked my model to give them a lift so the coloring has been placed slightly above where my original eyebrow would be and the shaping has been more rounded. For the eyes i have used the same two colours of black and gold as i did in my first experimentation however have made my look much more modern and exiting by creating a thick line using masking tape to sharpen the flicks and have thickened the liner to draw attention. Instead of blending gold i have decided to use gold into the crease going towards the brow, this helps the black from the liner stand out much more. The white base from the Elizabethan ere has been included as this was one of the key symbolism's as was used in Queen Elizabeth portraits and as she set of the trend due to her scars from small pox. The lips i have left quite simple with a subtle red as i didn't want too much going on especially as the eyes were dramatic. For the cheeks i have contoured the cheek bones bringing out the natural shadows to bring out the natural shape of the cheek and jaw bone.

Experimenting with designing -

Here was my very first design experimentation done on a class member.

For the eyes i have chosen two main colors - black and gold. I have placed gold into the tear duct of the eye and around the whole of the lid of the eye. I have then went onto shading the black into the outer corner and crease to give of a much more dramatic effect. Lastly i have filled in the eyebrows to help define the eyes and bring out the black from the shading. If i were to do this design for my final assessment i would include some eye catching bold black lace lashes to draw attention to the eyes therefore making my design much more contemporary.

Within this design i decided to use the Elizabethan pale face of the white lead and vinegar however using skin base and the white paint from the aqua pallet to create the pale base. For the cheeks i have added a coral coloured blush on the cheek bones forming a circular shape onto the cheeks.

Drawing a 3d object with shading.

Although i am not the best at drawing or art. I have tried my best to create an apple with shading. I have done it so the face hits directly on top of the apple creating a shadow around the outside and around the side. I found this task challenging as drawing does not come naturally however i have gained knowledge and understanding of shading and the placement of highlights and shadows.
