"Moon View" - 8" x 5.5" white ink on black paper
"Compassion" - 8" x 5.5" stippled ink on paper.
I have posted some new drawings to my available-drawings page. (You can click the link to take you directly to the page.)
Most of the new drawings are stippled. I have been really into stippling lately. I love the texture you can get with just dots. The process is also very soothing to me. I can build up intensity a little at a time. It is very reminiscent of sculpture in that it is a slow process to get to where you are going.
Some of the drawings are on black paper. With these, I use white ink to create a very interesting effect. Like in "Moon View" above, the white ink and the leafless tree gives the feeling of a cold winters night.
I am also using a traditional black ink on some drawings. the advantage here is the the stippling can be finer. I can get finer point pens for doing this type of work. It takes more time because the dots are so fine, but I think it gives a softer feel to the drawing.
