Tension by Brianna Eisman

sometimes my head doesn't work right and art doesn't look like art. sometimes i like to simply draw and doodle and not have a plan nor a color scheme. this is an example of that type of in-the-moment artwork sketch in my sketchbook. it includes marker and ink drawings, stickers, and random pieces of scrapbooking materials

This drawing is titled "Greyscale Doodle" and was created by Brianna Eisman, Artsy Drawings. The pen and ink drawing is a fun doodle of organic blobby shapes with circles and floral patterns and lines. It's drawn in greyscale using grey, black, and white ink tones. The doodled image features an abstracted floral mandala type pattern. For more like this, please visit my website at ArtsyDrawings.com

This portrait was created using mixed media like colored pencils, markers, and ink. The portrait features the face of a man resting in his hand, and staring dead-eyed at the viewer. I used non local color techniques to create depth and form using colors not typically found in the human face, like blues and violets for shadows and yellows and oranges or highlights. Parts of his face include small pink stars which originally faded from the previous page, but I really like the look it gives, they almost look like celestial freckles.
