Veronica Lawlor is an artist Gill told me to look at when it came to thinking of ways to add colour to my work that will work with my concept. The main thing I get from her work is using colour as a type of line and as as a tool to add liveliness and energy to a piece when appropriate, such as the piece to the right which needs some vibrance because it's time square. By toning down some of the ways in which she uses colour I can apply it to my own work to give a sense of life to my figures while keeping a nice balance with the building within them. I'm going to adapt this style by going over the lines of the figures I draw with multiple loose colours probably with gouache or maybe ink.
