Artwork Update

This is the completed drawing from the previous post.  Once again scans do not do these drawings justice due to the glare from the crackle glaze and varnish I am using.  Also a lot of the fine details are lost.

"Into thy hands, I commend my spirit."



This is a current work in progress that is ballpoint ink and watercolor on vintage paper called "It is finished."  This paper holds up pretty well to my abuse without tearing but I'm not going to push my luck too much.

"It is finished."

I haven't forgotten about the Exotic Symbolism series.  Here is the second ACEO (2.5" x 3.5") drawing.  I wasn't happy with it for the longest.  This colored pencil, micron ink, ballpoint ink and watercolor amalgamation didn't becoming appealing to me until I put a crackle glaze over it which took in the most interesting of places that don't show up on the scan. 




The work in progress that's on my easel?  Well that's going to remain my secret for now until I see how part two of my texture experiment takes.  I'll update in a few days.
