For this illustration I wanted to honor the late Stan Lee, one of the most iconic American comic book writers. For this illustration technique I used white gesso paint on cardboard as a foundation. Then glued string to create line texture, and then painted over it with acrylic paint. Once I had the illustration done I edited in Photoshop and added more contrast, saturation and a color halftone effect alluding to his past to comic books. And finally I put it into context to create an interesting editorial.
