This is drawn from a 19th century wood engraved illustration, but I made it a little more my own through distortion of his facial expression and pose. I've only seen owls out in the wild maybe three or four times.
Beetle in Ball Point. As I often do, I just started scribbling with a ball point until an image starts to emerge. This time, I grabbed a reference book on bugs and used that to give this a more naturalistic edge. Probably about an hour on this one.
Once again, I started scribbling with my pen until I started seeing negative shapes that looked like the spaces in between bare branches.
Stylized bull in fountain pen. This was just me playing with shape, pattern and value.
