It's done.
45 hours over 5 months. My first non-portrait drawing. A study of light, glass, and reflections. I'm really pleased with the turnout. Sure, there are parts I know I could have improved, but still. I'm really happy. However, I still can't really look at it right now. In a few days I'll really evaluate it. Right now I'm just...done. Materials: [link] (yeah, I used every pencil from 9B to 9H...and yeah, I blended this piece into oblivion...) Size: 7"x10" (pretty small...translates to over half an hour per SQUARE INCH!!) I decided not to put a frame on the digital image (which sucks, by the way...bad contrast and grainy quality...I'll try to get a better one; I did all I could to adjust the contrast, but it's still not as good as the original). It just didn't feel right. Maybe because it's not a portrait. Maybe because I felt the frame was tacky. Still working on the title. I'll get back to you. SO. This piece is actually for sale. Any takers?  I'll be submitting it to the Scholastic Art Competition, so I may not be able to deliver it for a while.All WIPs in scraps. Don't know what else to say. I feel like I should say more. ENJOY!! Thanks for viewing! I hope you've enjoyed this journey as much as I have! Interested in a print? Send me a note! Edit: This piece was selected as a American Visions Award Nominee (one of five in the state) on the regional level of the'08 Scholastic Art Competition. While it didn't win the national award, it did win a Gold Key on the national level of the competition. It was also selected in September to be in an exhibit of about 100 pieces that will go on display in the President's Committee in Washington, D.C., where it will be on display from September '08 through August '09. It was also chosen to be in Images, my high school's literary arts magazine. |

 reports, 1d 21h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.59 WE.LOVE.ART.FEATURE.VII.HOLIDAY.SPECIAL.~allieweasley

critique (very muted, indeed): the addition of a white border (elecronically) would have enhanced it, would have helped to guide the eye... the edge at top-right isn't as black as the surrounding area (a unseeable thing in background? a reflection?)
nevertheless a very good drawing! keep it up!
