Description
Dramatictitlemuch?Sketchbook Assignment: "Favorite Animal" [^__^;]
Materials: Pencils ala HB, 2B, and 6B; Prismacolor colored pencils, tissue, kneaded eraser, ballpoint pen, and o'course, white-out.
Time: 4 to 6 hours over two days.
hmmm... slowly getting happier with my projects..
The background would've been more detailed if I didn't have a chapter outline and research paper due..
But hey, I like what I did considering my time constraints.
Kind of lied about it being my favorite animal, the sea turtle...infact I prefer land turtles but...they're just not as colorful.
NEXT WEEK: Choice
SET YOUR TiVo..

For something that looks so intricate and realistic, this didn't take that long to do. I love how the turtle just burst out of the paper with all the vibrant colors.

you really think so? i think i'm ridiculously slow at drawing, but then i see people who can spend months on a drawing, perfecting every detail... i can't imagine what my pieces would look like if i had the time to do that...
thanks very much!

The colourful turtle is a nice contrast to the dark, monocromatic background. Was this a school assignment?

That is amazing. I love the colors of the turtle. And it looks fine without a "better" background. The way it is now makes your focus be on that wonderful turtle. And I love how it overhangs the border. That makes it look like it's swimming toward me. Fantastic piece!!

so far it's just friends of the family that are commissioning me to do portraits of animals, etc so it's nothing official.
