It is strange to merely have one picture in a post for me but for whatever reason the other one I took will not upload to the computer and I am being ultra lazy. If I think of it I will add a photo at another date. This image is somewhat of a close up of the entire image, but I really like the general mix of line and shape. Enjoy and I’ll see you next time.
Two Hundred and Two
An exploration with Chalk Pastels, not my favorite material but the softness is quite nice. I suppose my biggest issue with the material is what to do with the image afterwards. They are so delicate and smudge so easily. I’ll use a fixative on in soon but still it does not ever seem stable enough for me. The image itself I love. I love the high intensity areas and in contrast with the less developed sections.
Two Hundred and Three!
I still like the first image better as an end result but I love the yellow-orange section of this image as well as the point where it moves from high impact color out to faint pencil lines.
Far from the normal but I loved drawing them, they are like my little alien creatures or something. I’ve always loved drawing elongated figures although I wish I could more easily render a face that I actually liked and could call my own. I’ve seen this one so many times before. Enjoy and see you next time!
