Hi Steemit friends!
Today, I'm starting to re-discover my passion for drawing. It's a long lost hobby of mine that was taken over by my current hobby which is "digital art". The truth is that traditional method is still the best form of art and nothing can surpass it, at least in my eyes.
It's easier said than done, and for this first take - it really gave me a hard time. My hand had difficulty handling the pen that I used. Most of the time it's shaky and it was not easy to control. Anyway, let me present to you the final result & the photo reference, side-by-side.
The photo reference was shot by the man @sean-king with his wife Cindy (@steemed-open) as the subject.
I chose to feature Sean's, because he's been supporting my work since the day I discovered his feed. We share the same passion in photography and his amazing work made me follow his daily posts. On his latest post which you can find here: "Crypto Utopia", the amazing candy colors inspired me to recreate an artwork that have the same appeal as the 1950's pop art. I think the colors fit well with style. Here is the final result:
Materials
Aside from the sketch pad, the main materials used are markers from Copic Ciao, although it's my first time to use these I immediately fell in love with it. It's comfortable to use and have two types of tip: flat wide tip and a soft brush tip. I've used both tips for the application of colors.
So that's about it my friends, I hope you enjoy reading my very first art blog. For today I realize that skills that I have, even though it was forgotten for a long time, it will still emerge in any way possible. I guess the inspiration brought by @sean-king's amazing photo had me rediscover my old hobby. And I'm to finally produce a complete art work from it.
You have some serious talent. Great piece of art!
Thanks @doccrypto! Glad you like it.
We love it! Well done, and many thanks.
Great painting Especially since he used the colors well
Thanks @hassenben, took me time to find the right colors. I just bought these materials today. I guess inspiration can motivate anybody to take a leap. Have a great weekend as well :-)
Im really to read your feedback my friend. Please tell my regards to Cindy. Thanks a lot for your support :-)
Have a great weekend!
Good job @funtraveller.
Thanks!!!! @wandersells :-)
Awesome. Always good to see people finding time for their interests/hobbies.
And drawing is a real gift. Singing and drawing are hobbies which can't be picked up by any random person. They need real gifted abilities.
Thanks a lot @blog-beginner, glad to read your feedback. Hopefully i can get better at it. Have a great weekend! :-)
Wow dude that's awesome. I have seen you put sketches in your photos before but didn't realize you had this kind of talent. Love the pop art style.
Thanks dude! Didn't expect the outcome. I just git these pens today so its an experiment for now. It needs more practice especially my handling of the pens. Im a bit shaky. Lol
How's your #mypictureday? I'll intend to post later. Hope i can complete.
Don't think I am going to be in this week's #mypictureday. I have been really busy with work this week.
