page

Thought I would try to do a page; pencils and inks all in one night. This is the result:
The final product ended up taking me two nights. It is roughly 14" x 8.5".

Brush practice...


got some new paper today so I did a little page to muck around. Also got a new fatter brush so I can lay more ink down. fun stuff. I did only light pencils to get proportions and placement then did most of the rendering etc with the brush. I have barely used brushes for drawing so its very new to me. I tend to rush and move my hand very fast - like I would do with a pencil - however the bristles move in ways that I can't seem to predict. More practice, more practice, more practice...

Oneday I will be able to put down a nice line! (or maybe not)

tried drawing with the brush instead of tracing over pencils. It's late so I did it quick but it was fun to do.

Not much in the tank for drawing tonight. I actually spent about 2 hours painting earlier. Pics of that later.

page 21: fed up


for some reason this has been one of the hardest pages for me. I think I am ready to move on. can't stand to look at it anymore.
