Extraordinary Crushed Watercolor Portraits
Barcelona-based artist Borja Martinez crushes watercolour pigments and turns them into amazing portraits. He begins with a vector image printed on a piece of paper and cuts out pieces of the face to create a template. Next, he crumbles the rainbow colored pigments onto paper with his hands, allowing only some to pass through while the rest land on the template and are tossed aside. Once finished, he lifts the template up revealing a clean and final portrait underneath that plays on positive and negative spaces.
