Description
This was done because i had a stack of some nice, good quality paper (some with groovy patterns or textures or just plain but was really nice to work on) that i'd been given maybe like..more than 5 years ago as a birthday present, and i hadnt even touched because i was too afraid i'd wreck them. Im like that with a lot of things. So it just sat in the cupboard of my desk, gathering dust and looking pretty, and they were always on my mind whenever i wanted to draw.So the other night I just pulled one out and said im not going to sleep until i draw on it, a few hours later i'd started this. Ive been working on it over about a week, usually very late at night so i wake up with eyes that make me look like a permanent stoner. Its both similar and different (with the stars etc) to stuff ive done before, and i really like how it finished up. Its just felt-tip pen on nice paper that makes absolutely no difference on here, but was cool to draw on. Oh and dont worry about the lame pun of a title, i find that crap mildly amusing. I was thinking of calling it 'Twist and Sprout' XD

You know, that's a real talent you have to be able to draw like that. Like it looks random at first, but it's not really. I love this drawing, it's great. And nice paper kinda makes you want to draw real well, I think! Great job dude!

Thanks very much! I havnt thought of that before. It's like a calculated scribble haha. The nice paper definitely contributed to me not wanting to finish until everything was "perfect". Thanks for the fave!

SweetChile In reply to Simanion [2007-12-19 02:35:29 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, a calculated scribble is a good way to describe it! And yes, you can't leave good paper half finished! No prob.
