Description Ah, good ol' Tria Marker #454T. I just wanted to see if i could get good tones using only one marker, and a very light one at that. Ehh...i dunno how well it works, but i like how it came out regardless of the tones It was fun to do because i love the monotony of layering markers over and over and over! It's really very therapeutic!

So turn-of-the-century, southern melodrama was the mood of the day!

I really want to do somthing else like this in the near future. I'm currently planning somthing very ambitious, but i don't know if it will ever solidify....i guess we'll see.

Wow, how did you do that with only one marker?? I couldn't get a marker to do that for me, heh.

I love your work; I think it's amazingly beautiful and disturbing at the same time.

I love the look of this piece. It's got that sepia-tone charm to it. I love the subject: Ravens, corn and a maiden. Very Norse symbology.

Crithon [2006-04-10 09:57:34 +0000 UTC]

beautiful
reminds me a lot of the introduction to Wizard of Oz, I mean the use of desaturated sepia tone.
and there is amazing sense of longing while the crows gather before her.
amazing visual ^^

gorgeous piece; It's really amazing what you did with just one marker, it really shows the difference in tones and creates a rather eerie but nostalgic ambience to it; reminds me of "The Crowing" by Coheed and Cambria

BethaniRose [2005-08-19 00:34:07 +0000 UTC]

I also love the gloomy colour scheme, reminds me of the old film/ old yellowed newspapers effect. Styley! And go the marker! Gives it a very down to earth, drawn feeling which I love. I'm fond of cartooning/drawing styles that look like they've had influences from both Japanese and Western cartoons, yours are lovely. Keep drawing/making art! ^_^
