Fallen
March 26, 2007This is a drawing I did a couple of years ago. Nothing formal really, just paper and pencil. This is really interesting because there were other sketches together with this one 'cause I made this on a letter. One huge letter with a lot of drawings. I could not even remember what was in there. Nina just took a picture of this and sent it to me. I used to have tons of stuff at home too but I can't find them no more. I remember drawing a lot in college, just losing myself into the sketches. Staring at the blank page at first not knowing where to begin. And after I put in that first stroke, it just flows like water released from a dam. What I find exciting, strangely, are the mistakes that I make. Proportion, too much color, uneven shades, etc. I find it very satisfying altering or finding ways to make my work better, discovering things. Another thing that I really enjoy is shading and shadowing. I love seeing them scribbly lines come together and make sense. Anyway, I hope I could find my other drawings or maybe I could draw new ones. But naahh.. not now. So in conclusion, my drawings kick ass and that's the end of it.
