Drip, drip drip!
I took some photographs of a melting snowman this morning, its thawing state had led to a series of interesting curves and angles. The snowman reminded me of a Henry Moore sculpture, or some strange alien creature.
Drawing
Using pen and charcoal I made some quick sketches of the snowman. I then used a damp brush to create areas of grey by bleeding the pen and charcoal.
2nd drawing
For the 2nd drawing I used more charcoal in order to create areas of intense black. I accentuated the curve of the 'eye' with curved brush strokes, and mirrored the circular eye with a red circle in watercolour at the top left of the image.
'The Snowman'
To me it looks like a special gift wrapped up in delicate paper. Just my imagination ;)
Let's play the game 'What's the Gift?'... I think a pestle and mortar.
Excellent
Am still impressed on how people draw with charcoal..!
Messily 😉
Thinking of ice-cream after seeing your snowman photos. You took really amazing pictures though.
Delicious inspiration! Any particular flavour?
It for sure looks like a droid to me
Yes! I thought the same, especially after I spent so long painting BB-8 a couple of months ago.
cant wait to try out those haha
woww.. It is always impressive how you use this type of material. It looks super fantastic. regards!!!!

amazing artist its awesome. "Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time. " Painting is easy when you don’t know how, but very difficult when you do. @opheliafu
An artist's feather! Dazzling drawings @opheliafu
Looks like great sketch for sculpture, maybe to cut it from some plaster block? Sure it would look great @opheliafu.
I'll get the chisel :D

Beautiful process. I prefer pen and charcoal in my artworks, makes my thoughts more vivid. Anyway, keen on sharing.
