working back into old images

I worked back into two of my previous images, the first being my fourth doll drawing that i had already worked into and the second being my large drawing of my clown doll

 first i tried using a small part of black to see how it might look and then spread it across the rest of the background with a white outline to bring it forward and separate the doll from the background.

 I then added details from my newly designed circus around it (beads, border and lights) because of the pose and placement of the doll i wanted to keep it symmetrical to an extent.

 While working on the other image i used the same colours as the actual doll but darkened down with black ink, the ink also made the paint drip creating quite terrifying imagery.

 I added shading with pastels under the hair, chin and collar using a black and on the face a white to balance it out i also added white to the eyes, i think this gives the image some life making it seem incredibly eerie.

 The hair was to light so i went over it with a darker paint.

 I also went over the border with the same paint to make it more solid and curved the 'light'.
