 New work (plus in progress work)














Artist Reflection: 

We further discussed exploring an environmental scene, preferably one to contrast the collection of animal close ups. The scale of this piece will be much bigger and in color. Here I explored some environments on the same scale as the others, and explored inking one of the many animal pieces to experiment with the ink and detail to see if this is the direction I want to go in. I started with a pencil sketch and shading with graphite, using a kneaded eraser to lighten everything and went in with my ink pens to create texture and detail. Going further I want to test using acrylic ink to help me capture washes of ink and a higher variety of tones/values. For the environment piece, I want to figure out what medium I want to work in. Right now, I am interested in acrylic ink, watercolor, gouache, and maybe acrylic.
