Contrasting Characters
Here’s a pencil sketch of two men at a meeting. Whenever I draw two people side by side I’m try to accentuate the contrast between them.

Hey James,
ReplyDeleteI have to say, your pencil sketches are amazing. Have you ever thought of publishing your sketchbooks. I would love to have one of your sketchbooks on my bookshelf. It would definitely be a great source of inspiration.
best, Jason
I agree with 'jasonbrush',wonderful lines;the contrast between characteres create more tension...speaking about characters:I´m still thinking about this week chalenge:))

ReplyDeleteFor some reason that makes me grin... it could be an "Art by Committee" inspiration. Great drawing. I agree with Jason - you should think about publishing your sketchbooks (I'm assuming you haven't started buring them in your Gallery Flambeau!)
