Hand Photos

This is an example of how I created the portrait through photos of hands. Each hand has been cropped into a square to suit the features within the portrait which the square is covering. I then angled the hand to create a more realistic feature, not just static, allowing the hands to act like hair or different shaded areas like the nose or lips.

When put onto the grid, I then changed the colour of the photo to black and white, and also made the colour darker to represent shading within the portrait.

Hand Photos

This is just a tiny part of the shoot. The total number of photos came up to nearly 300 which had to then be individually editing the suit the features of my face. The image bellow is an example of putting the images together to create my face. I then made the final image black and white as it decreased the random colour elements within the picture, created by each individual photo.
