All right folks, so here's the drawing I decided to work further on
from this past month, my friend Mark’s Wilkie Collins/Drood-related
prompt. It was hard choosing between so
many that clearly needed more time, but in the end, I think this was the
one where what I wanted to show contrasted the most with
what I got down. The chasm of vision to product was fairly wide with
this one. And I had a particular vision for it, which involved more
time than I had within thirty minutes. The lines were left unfinished,
and the feeling of this picture is so heavily dependent upon light and
shade, and I barely got any down on the first run through, so I decided
to give it so much as I could manage within an additional hour, and here
is the result. By no means perfect, but a vast improvement I think!
I hope Mark
and all of you folks like it! I'm sorry I can't devote more time to
all the suggestions I get, but maybe at the end of this next month,
yours will be the one that gets revisited!
Submissions are
open now for tomorrow's sketch, so find the appropriate post on my blog,
and comment with your prompt before noon PST tomorrow to enter
the running!
