Artist's Comments

I drew this in my sketch book in the summer of 96, but never finished it. Later named her Ty. It is still one of my favorite pieces, so I felt like showing it off. I’m unhappy with the fact that I never finished it, it looks a bit rough all over, and the hands suck. Enjoy!

It's still great, and it's a personal and original work!

You drew it entirely with stippling? What medium?

Each of my posts you see were sketched with pencil, then inked it all in stippling. I erased the pencel as I went little by little.
Thanks for dropping by and viewing my work!!!

Thank you for dropping by and viewing my works. They are all pretty old and I see a lot of the issues that you pointed out. The image of the drow that you modifyed looks great. Seeing your version helps get the point across.
As I said, all of these are old, so I hope to finish up some new works for posting. I hope not to have some of my old issues with my new things. Guess we'll have to see.

Thanks again!

No problem, what got you interested in using stippling?

I think I first starting using stippling in my second year of high school for a basic drawing class (during the same lesson for hatching and cross hatching). I think I liked stippling so much because it's easy and I can't draw a straight line in one contunious motion. But I can fake a straight line using dots.
I did most of my work in high school using stippling, hatching, and cross hatching. It's so easy to tune out the teacher during class and zone out while lost in a series of dots.
BTW, love the work your doing too.

I can dig that, the zoning out thing that is :) I'm too impatient for stippling, though I did like the way it made my clouds come out in that one ink drawing I did and it does look great when it's done well like you do it. So, keep it up and thanks for the compliment.

Stippling is a bitch...great work! I did an entire mountain/meadow and about gave up half way through... nice job! :-D
Have a great day!

Thanks for checking out my work and leaving comments.
I really like stippling because of the effect you get out of it and because I can't draw a straight line, but it's easy to fake it with a bunch of dots.
