Sketchbook: Olympics 2by ~Maxahiss

DescriptionDetailsShare
Here's the next set of pages in my draw-a-day sketchbook featuring the Olympians of the past Winter Olympics. I'm still continuing this themed montage in my sketchbook and should have the next couple pages up by tomorrow.

Yeah ^^ I like coloring with white. It gives it a different feel to the art, I think.

This is a beautiful piece of work, even if it resides within a sketch book. I think that a lot of people take for granted how powerful mere sketches and sketchbooks can be. You've only proved that with this piece. I really enjoy the graphic quality that you've chosen to use. It works even better because the paper in your book is more of a manila-beige color so the white pops off the page. The white and the black is just a really strong touch.

I really can't say enough about this piece, just that it's absolutely wonderful. I can't wait to see more of your work!

Oh, and another point I wanted to make: The composition you've managed to create here is visually pleasing. Also the balance of white to black to neutral paper color is much better constructed in these particular pages in comparison to the other two that you have up.

I am just in love with this. :heart:

Nice observations on sketches and the mid-tone paper. And I'm quite thrilled this had a strong impact on you. Thanks very much!
