This public art project presented on the windows of ArtsAccess Victoria (AAV) , involved a conversation with my creative peers. Sittings in a safe space allowed them to connect on shared experiences and create meaning through the process. The drawings were made with a single line where I observed the sitter for the duration of the drawing. The line work happens quickly and intuitively. Watercolour was then used to give further form and life to the final work. Front Up aims to represent and empower Deaf and Disabled artists through the creative process of portrait drawing.
