Cannibalism

Welcome

The pictures below show a journey. This 3 ft. by 4 ft. piece of drawing paper is clipped onto a large, smooth surfaced board. This work is titled Cannibalism. If you look at the picture long enough, I think you'll figure out how I chose the name. I used artist pencils and Micron ink pens to create this strange drawing.

The swirly trees in the background have texture now. All of the monsters finally have eyes. And work on the tiny village under the leaf near the bottom has begun.

Texture and details appear on the large drippy flowers on the left. The white monsters in the middle start getting their eyes filled in.

Mountains! Dunes?

More details on the drippy flowers on the right. Outlines for the last big leaf on the left.

The drippy flowers on the right are coming to life.
