Artist's Comments

**FULLVIEW PLEASE**

The Final (cleaned) version of an earlier drawn work. The original can be seen here:

[link]

Have spent a fair bit of time (a few days on and off) at around 600% zoom to clean up the white areas of this image.

Originally drawn with:

Artline Faxblack 0.4 pens
Artline Drawing System 0.1 - 0.3 pens
Some slight cleanup via PC - but still an ink drawing, only removal of lines on paper and slight cleaning of some other white areas.

One of my Favourites in this style that I have produced.

Thanks heaps Ira.

I did spend a long time on the original piece, and have been at it for a few hours each day over the last few, zoomed way in to clean up selective white spaces and other cleaning.

Apart from my stippled style, this type of work has to be my absolute fav. as I just love making things appear from nothing so to speak.

So happy you like this work, and thanks so much for your comments on it. I really appreciate it. =D :aww::aww:

Thanks, and Thanks, I am always doodling somewhere - this one was done inside a large diary I cart around filled with ideas for artworks etc, and was drawn over the top of a yearly planner (that I have since removed digitally - very slow process) and I wasn't sure how it would clean up, but I think it scrubbed up ok. And yes, I'll be getting back into this style a bit more soon, as I have a request from a friend to do a shark, so keep your eyes peeled for that one soon... =D=D

Yeah, I can see where you get that impression from, but this is a fair bit more chaotic than that style...and this sort of work usually begins with no set direction and a doodle, usually started in the center of the piece that I work out from and slowly build something out of, so most of the time, these things are totally random, until I start to see things form.... And thanks...

yeah...that's how i draw as well...no pencil/stream of consciousness stuff. i can see a geographical influence. it's very cool.
