"Spider man vs flash" intarsia
For my seventh project, I am working on Spider Man vs Flash. The medium I used is intarsia. I used intarsia in Art 3, Sons of Anarchy. I love it. It is really fun! So first I had to draw it on a paper that corresponds with the styrofoam size. I found a frame based on how big I want it and the size was 12X18 , then I found a styrofoam the same size, and I drew my idea on the paper. THen I had to transfer it to the styrofoam by taping the paper to the styrofoam and went over the drawing with pen. I had to press hard enough to dent the styrofoam. Then I went over the dents and cut it out. Now I am painting the pieces individually. I chose red as the background and black for the spider because of spider man. The web is gray because I did not just want white. I wanted it to look different and unique. The lightning bolt will be yellow and the back ground will be white to represent the Flash logo. Lastly, I will apply polyurethane to make it shiny!
The project is going great so far! The hardest part for me is peeling off the white paint. It is so time consuming. I chose a styrofoam that had already been painted, but I did not think it would be a problem. Until I experimented and painted one and it looked weird. So i just started taking it off and it is working better!
