Description The druids walk -

This was my first 'majorly leafy' ink drawing ... you can see how the leafy 'thing' has progressed since then. I've updated it with a scanning in the nick of time - the original is starting to degrade, the papers sooo thin and it'll fall apart if its taken out of my portfolio sleeve again.

I would go crazy with the tediousness of it.

mmm, it was a case of, 'how many leaf shapes can there actually be!?' .... at least it gets easier after the initial '1st' piece.

Thank you - it was my first one of this type and it took just under 40 hours total now it takes me about 20 hours to do something as detailed, but cleaner and sharper also.

yes, some of the smaller things do look ... odd
- I don't think it was helped by the paper being so soft that the ink bled a lot either

It was my very first ever leafy picture and it took about 30 hours roughly...now I get them done in about 9-12 hours!! The paper was really low quality and I bought nicer pens once I did this, but I'm still really fond of it, so I'm glad you like it!!

The detail and lushness of this piece is goregous! You can actually "feel" the leaves by the care you took in rendering them. A visual treat.

It took soooo long to draw those leaves that I thought I'd end up with a permenent dent in my finger where the pen digs in!!! Glad you like it!!

They do make your eyes go funny after a while of drawing them...and they make your hand REALLY hurt!!
