A bit of a poor excuse for an icad, ik, but I was verrrrry tired, been out all day from 11-6 with my cousins from America, who I only see once every year or two years
Also, check out some of my brother’s, mum’s and dad’s best icads here: http://livegrownourishcreate.wordpress.com/2013/06/07/i-love-sharpies/
Here are three landscape icads I drew yesterday (in addition to yesterday’s icad):
Tree on Hill with Storm Above
I think this is the best?
Rays of Light Abstract
It is pretttttttty abstract, but I like the yellow cutting through the dull black and white backdrop
Waterfalls
This was my first, which you may have been able to tell. There is two much white in it!
These are pictures I took while on holiday in Pakefield, Suffolk. We went to many different beaches, including Southwold, Aldeburgh, and Sizewell.
This icad was inspired by a photograph I took while on holiday at Deal- Lights on the Horizon at Night.
I again used 4 and 6B pencils, to smudge the colour. I like this style… I think it makes the different areas of lightness merge more smoothly, and the colour looks more solid.
You should try it
If you want very light areas, put occasional lines or dashes and smudge them, or smudge a dark area of colour into the white space with your fingertip to get a light area of colour.
This is Lights on the Horizon at Night, the inspiration of my icad… a dark, abstract photograph, with a boat out at sea, its lights shining across the ocean:
