Description
Created on a A4 sheet of glossy printer card, shockingly works better than the expensive Seawhite of Brighton paper. This card doesn't turn the pencil blue when scanning, allows it to stay b/w.Created over a few hours using fine graphite pencils such as Derwent Technical: HB - H - 3H - 6H. A little black and gold maker here and there too.

Such a gorgeous piece. Your shading skills are phenomonal, I almost didn't want to believe this was pencil. At first glance, I wanted to assume it was inkwash. You create such fantastic effects with your pencils. I love the emphasis you used with the gold marker. I just love your form of contrast. This is excellent, like all of your work!

Absolutely beautiful!! I love how 'soft' and silky you made her skin! ^_^ The slight wrinkles in the fabric are really effective, too!

I'm not sure of the card make, buy it from a local supplies store. Its good for soft shading, but you have to use the pencils very gently as lines are impossible to smoothen out of sight.

Flowing, with gorgeous attention to detail. I love the use of limited colour, and the butterflies are really cool.
