Presentation Study in Pen and Ink Techniques
"Nice" is a
dramatic study in pen and ink with many dark shades of stippling to
highlight the stunning beauty of the model.
This particular
pen and ink work was utilized after locating a photo on the web of a
strikingly attractive model in a simple "flirtation" pose.
After contacting
the photographer in the Czech Republic, this artist obtained
permission to do a study utilizing the photograph as a basis for the
artwork.
The use of
stippling combined with strong line work for the young lady's hair
offers a pleasing contrast to the overall pen and ink
techniques.
Rather than using
a heavy wash background it was decided to utilize stippling with a
No. 2 pen to highlight the subject: the young model.
The result offers
dimension to the artwork.
This study in pen
and ink techniques was completed in June 2006.
The work took
approximately 15 hours to complete and measures about 8 x 10 inches
on an 11 x 14 background.
