Art Day 20

 Art Day 20: Little Girls Point

 

These two pictures are of the same place, as hopefully you noticed. I wanted to play around with different materials and their effects. The above picture is just charcoal, but the bottom has three different types of tape, markers, crayons, pens, pencils, and colored pencils.

The scotch tape is actually overlaying the bright blue maker, creating a richer, waterier look. It also blended the water and shore colors to make a beach effect. 

 Continuing with the effects of tape, this piece, done of an opened leatherman pocket knife, is done entirely in tape. I used the different colors to define edges and shadows, and also to show important elements, such as the hing joint of the scissors.

 This work also used tape, but only as a framework. The subject remained in blue ball-point pen.

Ball-point pen creates a good sheen for a metallic drawing, because it isn't as intense as pen and ink. More penknives above.
