Description Yay first piece on my new A3 scanner

Apparently not here before on dA as too big for my old scanner... Rather intricate as always I know
A close-up of a small section can be here [link]

Drawn freehand with Staedtler pen, probably 0.7 or 1.0 and Derwent pencils.

Original size is A3-ish

Created July 2006

Can you say DETAIL?!!!!!! Man I really wish you had a bigger file up- there's so much detail that can't be seen!

Perhaps I`ll do a bigger scan of part of it - since my work keeps appearing on photobucket,etc not so
keen on big scans unwatermarked

Yeah I can see where that would be a problem- but what about a see-through watermark?

Thanks Indeed it did - but kidneys playing up at time so more relief from boredom and pain than anything else.
You may be pleased to know also started a few mono abstracts too though - hopefully will get at least one finished next week...

beatles4eva [2008-01-19 07:37:09 +0000 UTC]

It's much more muted than your usual pieces . . . I always end up envisioning your work wallpaper, draperies, or even designs in clothing. In that context, this would be much better when paired with a bright solid or two . . .

I think I prefer your brighter, bolder pieces more XP
but I can see how much work you put into this, that is appreciated

Quaddles-Roost In reply to beatles4eva [2008-01-19 21:06:12 +0000 UTC]

Thanks - does look muted compared to my latest works, guess Prismacolor pens really changed things
