Gourd Still Life

Mixed Media (Color Pencil, Ink Tense)
24.1 x 19.7 cm
Nov 2009

          This was a study of real gourds and to experiment with new media. Using ink tense for the base and foundation of the coloring, color pencil was utilized to amp up the values of the hues. I really like how in this study I was able to loosen up my line control, which has helped influenced my artwork as an artist now.
