New Style development
I have been trying to hone in on a style for my pen and ink with color pieces. Here is a sketch that I worked on today. I like how it turned out and I am looking forward to applying this technique to pieces for my upcoming show. [medium used: pen&ink with colored pencil]
I like this style. Its cool how you made dimensions in the face with the lines, you even made lips. The way the lines on the checks droop down makes her look like an older woman…..and she has a bun. There seems to be a dip in her forehead….. anyway. I don’t know if I’m suppose to see an eye, but I do. In the area where the eye is suppose to be you have a line curving up and a line curving down and if you stare at it long enough you see the eye. Is that on purpose or am I seeing things?
I really like the colors two, its like fire. Going from yellow to orange to reddish-orange.
Can”t wait to see more!!
