On this page I used coloured pencils for the top piece and watercolours for the bottom. I used bright watercolours for the picture in the bottom left, as it's the kind of colours Burton would use. I like both of these pieces as I think they resemble Burton's work. I think perhaps the bottom piece on the top photo maybe strays a little too far from the original photo.
On the bottom page I decided again to combine both artists in one piece and here I experimented with crayons for a part of it. I wouldn't use crayons again as they don't work very well for either my artists style. They don't give enough coverage needed. The background I did in watercolour and in stripes, both from Burton's work, and over the top of the crayon portrait also done in the style of Tim Burton I use acrylics to paint small strokes of paint. I used a paintbrush for this to make the piece flat unlike Salgado's work but like Burton's even though the acrylic paint idea was inspired by Salgado.
