Taking Cover B&W

Pencil Original size: 15" x 21" Copyright 2004 Look familiar? After I completed this in pastel I decided to try it in pencil to see what it looked like as a black and white drawing. I'm still not sure which I prefer better because they convey different feelings. It's an interesting excercise to render subjects in different media.

I looked at the one in pastel and it is also amazing...but Id have to say this one is my favorite of the two...but maybe because I love pencil work. It would be really neat to see this same picture done in acrylic as well. Just a perfect composition, in any medium!

Tim... I had a hard time choosing where to put my comment, because I wanted to make sure that you saw it... Your work is absolutely amazing!!!!! Honestly... the detail, the shading... They look like photographs!!! I would be honored if you would give me your opinion on my work as well. I can only hope that my work will be as good as yours one day. Thanks so much.

Christina Toews 03 May 2005

So neat! To take a picture already done in color, and try it in black and white! :) Personally, I like your pencils (B&W) better than the pastels/colors. This one gives it a more dreary mood, rather than the almost playful tone of the colored one. Well done Tim! :)

Renata Cavanaugh 03 May 2005
