Inktober 13 - ASH : Pencil, copic multiliner, india ink wash... i didnt really like this prompt TBH. took forever to decide on a topic. anybody trying to quit dont listen to this butthead...keep at it, it does get easier.
I participated in an art swap challenge at Sktchy where I had to draw someone randomly assigned to me in a "space" theme. I'm so pleased with how this one turned out! Pen and watercolour, 6x4". Would love to hear what you think the story
Illustration painted with watercolors and outlined with pink pen. The borders were achieved with washi tape (low tack and unlikely to tear up your paper.)
This piece began as a multi-colored abstract . . . but it was nowhere . . . nothing . . . and had no essence. So, I tried to take it in the direction of a landscape . . . and that was horrible. I gave the entire piece a whitewash using a white acrylic paint pen. And then the idea popped into my head to Doodle over the colored background. The title reflects the fact that the piece only came to life with the addition of the Doodles . . .
Okay, I may have paraphrased the quote unintentionally when I was drawing this but it still checks out, hopefully…!
