Artist's Comments
I've finally submitted it. Inspired by a Photo of the beautiful
This is supposed to be part of a series, with another piece 'Desdemona Drowning' (from last year) which I will also submit (I only have a screenshot at the moment [link]). I'm happy with the progression.
The background is lazy but when there was nothing there it looked wrong, I didn't want to detract away form her. Otherwise I'm quite proud of this. I also hate hair. Lots. It's a photo, not perfect, my A4 scanner and stitching is a nightmare. There has to be an easier way!!!
Size: A3
Tools: pencils 2H through to 9B (graphite), cotton buds, tissue paper ( Andrex!), kneadable eraser.
I had never used a cotton bud before dA, or really blended my pencil lines with tissue etc, an art teacher years ago told me not to
This was only possible by the inspiration of ~RTyson *ladyshawn *ThePencilClub and the tips of ~aramismarron. dA has really helped me, just little tips and seeings peoples WIPs and their descriptions. So keep helping everyone!
Whoa! That is a good drawing! Have you ever tried one of those blending stubs to soften up the image? I have those stubs to make images look softer like the complexion on the face or soften up shadows, like that. I hardly ever use the cotton thing or the eraser, I use the stubs and they are wonderful to soften up shadows or lighten up in the areas you want to. It is made of roll up heavy paper in grey color, pointed in one end.
