Resin Face - Personal Experiment

This piece was more of an explorative work. I used pencil, ink and resin to play with shadows, pulling and pushing the resin across the portrait and the old map on which this piece was painted on to allow for transparent sections. These transparency add to the layering and 'history' of the mark making and I was interested in combining this technique and idea with the (up-cycled) map background.
