Drawing big scale isn't in my comfort zone and yet I've been trying to make it happen. I must say, I'm just as happy with some nice looking small art sketches I made in the past. However, something happened along the way that made me want to upscale the size of my sketches. I guess seeing bigger size work from others is just too inviting not to try.
There are advantages to doing smaller sketches:
1. Working in a smaller scale isn't as intimidating.
2. Working with details is easier because it is smaller in size.
3. Finishing the work is faster. Well, maybe.
Anyway, I think I know what to do next. Here's a small sketch I did today. It's small, it may even qualify as a thumbnail sketch!

I don't really find it any quicker to do small sketches. I still obsess about including everthing. lol This seems to have just about the right amount of detail. I like how you saved the whites.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean, Joan. I'm just as obsessed with adding many details...Lucky, I had to leave that place otherwise there wouldn't have been much left of the white. Thanks for looking.
