Exhale

Rough sketch, pink / blue ballpoint and pencil on paper.

Exhale. Pencil and red pencil on paper. 21 x 29,7 cm.
This is a sketch for a serie paintings I'm going to make. It's going to be a lot of faces and just a little bit of the body, because I want to concentrate on faces first. I've made several sketches with girls and nature, insects and animals.

I drew her naked at first, but it became a pornographic image. Something that I didn't want...so I changed it into leaves.

    It's so impressive how you can almost see how thin the flower petals are, and the small red dots falling from above.
    My favourite paintings from you are the ones of girls and women. They are so beautiful, and you have the ability to make beautiful girls, that never looks the same as another girl.
    Incredible!<3

    Hi Marjolein!

    Lovely work! I've added your blog to my list of favorites.

    This is off topic, but you enquired about the illustration on my blog. That is definitely Kinuko Craft's work, emulating Rackham. Craft is very adept at channeling the old artists.
