Description Yet another still life from one of my college drawing classes a few years back. This is one that I set up and drew in my apartment. If you look closely at the lamp, you can see my reflection.

White Prismacolor pencil on black Canson paper.

It's really good!
But can I ask why the cup is smaller than the tea pot?

really nice detail, how long did it take you? I just uploaded my still life, would you mind checking it out? [link]

silentsketcher In reply to Oak-T [2007-09-27 02:08:39 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I can't recall how long it took, at least several hours. I tend to be a slower worker as it is.

Your still life looks pretty good, too. The shading definitely looks nice. If you're asking for help, the only thing I could suggest is the line weight looks a little too heavy in certain places, like the edges of the polygon that's resting on the box. I would think that they aren't that hard.

Great still life here...that'll learn ya how to use darks in a picture. (I should do one of these...)

silentsketcher In reply to Doozigitis [2007-06-26 14:49:27 +0000 UTC]

It's interesting to work backwards, dark to light rather than adding dark. I definitely recommend doing at least one.

I bet. Seems a bit like playing devil's advocate.

Still lifes are cool, but they take too long. I'd rather draw a person than a set up.

Thanks! Lighter medium on dark paper looks especially cool, I think.
