Miss Havisham Base Practical


After my previous research I wanted my Miss Havisham’s skin base colour to represent the colour pallet of the bruising images I had found and that of the Jenny Saville painting with the yellow pale skin and the blue and purple undertones. In this lesson we had to practise and experiment with the perfect base and colouring we wanted to use for our own interpretations of Miss Havisham.

Lottie’s Feedback: The colouring was good a good deathly shade, although I had used to much base foundation was very thick and you could see it in the hair line, eye brows and around the mouth- apply less foundation and blend into the more delicate areas such as around the mouth never apply foundation onto the lips.

I liked the overall colour I had created using my Kryolan foundation and eye pallet colours although I feel the effect of the blue tones added into the eye area and around the face would create more depth in the skin base. I will take on board what Lottie suggested and next time try and create a more natural base.
