Showmans engines come to life in the dark when the power they create via a dynamo lights the entire fairground and themselves creating an electrifying atmosphere within the fair and a comforting orange glow around the engines. This is something I want to try and capture on paper so experimented with a way in which to create such an image. The experiment uses a black paper background working onto it with acrylic starting with the darkest possible colours that would appear in the image and working up to lighter and lighter areas.

| The Dark Colours added as a background |

| Brighter colour used to pick out details and highlight shadowed areas. |
I think this experiment was very successful in that it created the right feel and atmosphere that i wanted however the A4 sizes meant that the level of detail was limited. Therefore I will re do the sample on a larger piece.
