Hobbit (x2) A4 sketchbook. Pen & Ink and Pen, ink and pencil shading.
A comparison. I draw the pic on the left with an 05 pen. Intending to have little or no shading. Then I thought how would it look with more shading on it. So I took a pic just of the penwork, then I used a 4b pencil, thinking I could rub it out if it spoilt it. Not sure I learned anything, they are both OK. Any preference I might have depends on how I'm feeling that day. (I finally used one of Dawn's photos (the tree), the rest is made up.)
About the Artist
Lewis Cooper
Self taught. Love drawing. Like to make pictures up, without using reference pics, often in cartoon style. I do other pictures where I do use reference. I'm knocking on a bit, born in 1940 in Greenwich, London. Retired, and loving it.
