Leopard

Sunday, July 11th, 2010

To start with I pencil in the outline. This took about 5 hours to do. Once that was done I went over it with white chalk.

After the white chalk has been applied I smudge it in and then start to apply the different colors. For this I used brown, green, and a bit of yellow.

Once the other colors have been applied I then smudge them together and afterwards use an eraser to clean up the picture and refine the drawing.

Bono and The Edge

This picture is done in chalk, what makes it special is I didn’t smudge the chalk. Not to be lazy, but with the type of paper I used it gave it a very nice effect.

On the outside you see a confident person, holding her head high but on the inside you see a woman confused with her emotions

Dunes of Flesh

Similar to my dunes of ink picture, this one came first though. It’s a little more difficult to see what’s behind the dunes.

Innocence

I like this picture so much I’ve drawn it twice. This isn’t a black and white picture as a lot of blending of different colors went into the picture to give it the effect of a silhouette.

This is a great picture and it’s such a pity the photo doesn’t do it justice.

Melua

A cute face, the name Melua is just what I think a good name for the face. The picture is done with chalk on black paper.
