Description
pen and ink on illustration board-hot press (15 X 20 inches)this picture took much longer than I intended. I started out by leaving the background simple and white, but then decided I wanted the image to look darker, and kept scratching away.

I have been doing some small exhibitions here and there, and drawing whenever I have time. I plan on a larger exhibition some time in the future. We will see.

thanks, thats kind of how I feel about these things when I am drawing them. Then when I get finished I basically forget everything and never look at them again.

This one has to be one of my favorites so far. Probably because you emphasized the detail and the visual personality of each of the creatures in this one more than others. I don't even understand how you can understand the shading so well with your mind to apply it to crosshatching so well. Crosshatching is hard for me. The crazy hand thing is my favorite and the guy on the left with the big eye is my second.
